Bentall procedure is not advisable when the origins of the coronary artery ostia cannot reach the composite valve graft at a satisfactory level for direct reimplantation. The other alternatives to coronary artery ostia reimplantation have some disadvantages. A technical modification of the Bentall procedure, successfully used in 3 patients and allowing direct coronary reimplantation without any tension on the suture line, is described.
