Subcoronary implantation of decellularized aortic homografts in an animal model

Subcoronary implantation of decellularized aortic homografts, which may be favourable especially in children as it avoids the need for a coronary transfer, was explored in acute animal models including modification to a single-suture technique. The publication is available Open Access here:
