Outline of Final Research Achievements

We performed bicuspidalization experiments in miniature pigs and applied computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation to investigate the very early histologic changes caused by exposure to abnormal bicuspid flow.
Under general anesthesia, left thoracotomy was performed. Cardiopulmonary bypass was established with carotid artery cannulation and jugular vein and right atrium cannulation. After aortic clamping, bicuspidalization was conducted by running suture of left-non (n=3) or right-non (n=2) aortic cusps. Four sham operations were also performed. Postoperative mortality was 11% (1/9) and there was no operative death. Echo study showed that postoperative stenosis rate was 44%. CFD study showed increased wall shear stress (WSS) in the greater curvature after LN bicuspidalization and in the lesser curvature after RN bicuspidalization, respectively, H/E staining showed similar aortic wall histology between sham surgery and bicuspidalization surgery (high WSS area and low WSS area).
