    ObjectiveTo evaluate the feasibility and safety of Remodeling+Ring (modified Yacoub) for patients with aortic root aneurysm. MethodsThe clinical data of patients who underwent modified Yacoub surgery at West China Hospital of Sichuan University from July 2020 to May 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. ResultsFour male patients were enrolled, with an average age of 47.3±10.3 years and body surface area of 1.9±0.2 m2. One patient had a complication of bicuspid aortic valve. Aortic valve regurgitation was mild in three patients and moderate in one patient. Preoperative New York Heart Association (NYHA) heart function was gradeⅠin one patient and gradeⅡin three patients, and the body surface area was 1.9±0.2 m2. The maximum diameter of the aortic sinus was 59.3±8.1 mm. All four patients recovered and were discharged without a second thoracotomy. No postoperative complications such as brain injury, infection, respiratory failure or renal insufficiency occurred. During the follow-up of 17.0±13.1 months, two patients showed no regurgitation of the aortic valve, two patients exhibited mild regurgitation. Three patients had a heart function of gradeⅠ and one patient of gradeⅡ. ConclusionModified Yacoub technique is safe and effective for patients with aortic root aneurysm.
