The child's abnormal aortic valve is removed and replaced with the child's healthy pulmonary valve. This is known as an autograft.

The valve placed in the pulmonary position will need to be replaced later in life as it wears out. </p><h2>Risks of the Ross procedure</h2><p>Risks of the procedure can include bleeding, infection, fluid retention, swelling (edema), breathing difficulties, or damage to the electrical conduction system of the heart.</p>Ross procedureFalse
