Aortic aneurysm and dissection are important causes of morbimortality in patients with Marfan syndrome (MFS) and other connective tissue diseases that affect the cardiovascular tissues. Timely intervention through different surgical techniques improves the prognosis. Both sparing and replacement-type interventions of the aortic valve are used, but selection depends on the condition of the patient at the time of diagnosis, the patient's emergency condition, surgeon preference and hospital resources. Previous meta-analyses have suggested an advantage with the use of sparing-type interventions, but this finding must be updated and extended to patients with other connective tissue disorders. The objetive of this study is to evaluate the outcomes of valve-sparing root replacement versus aortic root replacement procedures in patients with MFS and similar connective tissue diseases that present with aortic aneurysm or dissection.
