Asymmetry Is the Norm in “Cloverleaf” Aortic Root Structure Open
Purpose Except for the aortic root (AoR), the thoracic aorta is a radially symmetric structure. It has recently been described as a three-cloverleaf (sinus) structure, with evidence supporting sinus asymmetry. Due to asymmetry, it is diffi…
