Eleven-year experience with
composite graft replacement of the ascending aorta and aortic valve.
There is debate about the tissue designation of upper extremity
composite grafts because they share significant similarities to solid organ donation, including procurement from beating heart donors to limit cold ischemia and time constraints to assess donor suitability, communicate with a potential recipient, and coordinate with procurement teams.

Moreover, in pediatric patients, in the long term follow-up studies,
composite grafts showed superior durability to the autografts and homografts for aortic position.
In the Cuff Technique we used 8 to 9 mm Native Aortic cuff to reinforce our proximal anastomosis, while in non-cuff technique
composite graft was directly anastomosed to LVOT.
