Any medical student lucky enough to watch a Root Replacement in the Cardiac OR will tell you how incredible of an experience it is. Today we honor the great Dr. #Bentall for #AorticDiseaseAwarenessMonth. Take a read below and share! #AortaEd @AorticDissectUK @ThinkAortaUS

The Bentall procedure gets its name from the first Professor of Cardiac Surgery in the UK – Dr. Hugh Henry Bentall. Dr. Bentall was a man of many firsts, assisting in Britain's first successful pulmonary embolectomy and first successful surgical correction of esophageal atresia.
