Bentall procedure, first performed 50 years ago, holds a special place in the history of aortic surgery. Up to now this procedure has been widely used in cardiac surgery and remains the golden standard in managing the ascending aorta and aortic valve diseases. This paper looks at Professor Hugh Bentall’s biography, the Russian translation of his original paper published in 1968 and also a short history of ascending aorta surgery. Conflict of interest: The authors declare no conflict of interest. Acknowledgement: The authors appreciate Professor S.P. Gliantsev’s critical comments and valuable advice in discussions about the paper.
