Ross Procedure Surgery Then, I learned about the advantages of a special form of aortic valve replacement surgery known as the Ross Procedure. To help you learn about the Ross Procedure, I filmed this educational video about the Ross Procedure with Peter Woglom and Dr. Paul Stelzer. If you were unaware, The Cleveland Clinic refers to the Ross Procedure as the Switch Procedure because the patient's pulmonary valve is removed and switched to the aortic position. Then, a homograft (a human donor valve) is placed in the pulmonary position.

Tissue valves Information and photographs posted with permission from Edwards Lifesciences®. The porcine stented valve was the first generation of porcine tissue valves. They have been available for more than 30 years. The valves are made from natural porcine aortic valves, but may be used for aortic or mitral valve replacement. They are trimmed and then fixed in buffered glutaraldehyde at high pressure.
