Abstrakt: A recent study conducted by researchers at the University "Federico II" has revealed new findings on aortic aneurysm. The study focuses on a case of an asymptomatic patient with a congenital bicuspid aortic valve who was found to have a large aneurysm of the ascending aorta. The researchers emphasize the importance of not underestimating seemingly harmless symptoms and signs that may indicate serious underlying conditions. They also highlight the effectiveness of the modified Cabrol procedure as a life-saving surgical strategy in complex cases requiring aortic valve and ascending aorta replacement.
