  Figure 1 Heights of coronary ostia and sinus of Valsalva measured in reconstructed computed tomography imaging. Coronary ostium height was defined as vertical distance between neo-annulus to coronary ostium. Sinus of Valsalva height was defined as vertical distance between neo-annulus to sinotubular junction. (A) denotes coronary height from neo-annulus to left coronary ostium (short arrow, 4.4 mm) and sinus of Valsalva height from left coronary cusp side (long arrow, 13.1 mm). (B) denotes coronary height from neo-annulus to right coronary ostium (short arrow, 7.7 mm) and sinus of Valsalva height from right coronary cusp side (long arrow, 13.9 mm).
