Özet

Rheumatic heart disease is still an important pathology affecting young people. When valve repair techniques are not possible, valve replacement is inevitable in pediatric patients despite the risk of patient prosthesis mismatch with the growing child. In this report, we present aortomitral fibrous body remodeling, Commando procedure, in a 12-year-old male patient with rheumatic aortic and mitral valve disease to provide adult size mechanical double valve replacement.
