Rapid Prototyping Flexible Aortic Models Aids Sizing of Valve Leaflets and Planning the Ozaki Repair

Two patients with bicuspid aortic valve were selected for aortic valve repair using the Ozaki procedure. Patient-specific models of their aortic roots were generated based on computed tomography data and were 3-dimensional printed using a flexible resin. The models allowed sizing of the valve leafle...
