RESUMO

Reduction ascending aortoplasty has been advocated as a possible alternative to traditional graft replacement for treatment of aneurysms of the ascending aorta and root. We report a case of a 58-year-old Jehovah's Witness female, with a 5.5-cm ascending aortic aneurysm and critical aortic stenosis. She underwent aortic valve replacement and reduction aortoplasty buttressed with a Dacron graft. We reviewed the history and contemporary applications of this technique and concluded that aortic reduction with externally supported aortoplasty may represent a viable option to treat Jehovah's Witness patients with ascending aorta and root aneurysm.
