For complex aortic root lesions, the flanged Bentall procedure has more advantages than the traditional one. Here, we report two patients with complex root lesions treated with the flanged Bentall and Cabrol procedure: one was a 25-year-old male with interventricular septal dissection with Behçet's disease, and the other was a 4-year-old female with a very large ascending aortic aneurysm with a small annulus and Loeys-Dietz syndrome. Both patients recovered uneventfully and obtained good short-term results.

Behçet's disease with interventricular septal dissection is extremely rare, and its surgical treatment is even more challenging. One such treatment with interventricular septal dissection repair was followed by the flanged Bentall and Cabrol techniques. The flange of the flanged composite graft was attached to the left ventricular outflow tract instead of the fragile annulus. The Cabrol procedure was performed to reduce anastomotic tension at the coronary button sites. Good short-term results were achieved.
