Optimal hemodynamic performance is of paramount importance when implanting a prosthesis in a patient with a small aortic annulus. In order to avoid prosthesis size/patient body surface area mismatch, current techniques advocate aortic annulus patch enlargement or the use of a supra-annular prosthesis to ensure the implantation of an appropriately sized aortic valve. We present the first description of mechanical dilatation of a small aortic annulus as a simple alternative method.
