They do surgery under 5cm in special circumstances. I had a Bentall procedure at Mayo Jacksonvilee during an emergent situation. My aortic root was 4.8 and mid ascending aorta 4.7 at the time. I am being monitored for a 4.6 on the native distal area of the ascending aorta at present.

How is your recovery from the Bentall procedure? It has been recommended to me.
