This study is the first to describe and compare detailed segmental geometry of the Dacron ring and suture annuloplasty in a standardized porcine model. The two annuloplasties effectively downsized the aortic annulus, while expansibility was maintained. Each annuloplasty had its own geometrical characteristics, but the Dacron ring was more similar to the native aortic annulus than the suture annuloplasty. This study suggests that the Dacron ring offers a more physiological and standardized support by mimicking the geometry and dynamics of the native aortic annulus and thus is a preferable choice over the suture annuloplasty for valve-sparing aortic root procedures.
