%X <B>UNASSIGNED: </B>In 2014, Ozaki et al. introduced the neo-cuspidation (Ozaki procedure), a new valve from the pericardium, to reduce or even prevent the risk of chronic autoimmune inflammation and subsequent rejection or valve degeneration. Thus, the authors aimed to assess the safety and efficacy of the Ozaki technique in treating aortic valve diseases.<BR><B>UNASSIGNED: </B>A comprehensive search was performed via PubMed, the Cochrane Library, Scopus, and the Web of Science up to 20 February 2022. Random-effects meta-analysis models were employed to estimate the pooled mean and SD or event to the total of the Ozaki procedure. Relevant records were retrieved and analyzed by OpenMeta analyst software.<BR><B>UNASSIGNED: </B>A total of 2863 patients from 21 studies were finally included in our analysis. Ac. Ozaki technique showed statistical significance in terms of mean cardiopulmonary bypass time of 148 mins (95% CI 144-152.2, P<0.001), mean aortic cross-clamp time of 112.46 mins (95% CI 105.116, 119.823, P<0.001), reoperation with a low risk of 0.011 (95% CI 0.005, 0.016, P=0.047), conversion to aortic valve replacement with a low risk of 0.004 (95% CI -0.001, 0.008, P=0.392), finally ICU stay (days) and hospital length of stay (days) with a mean of 2.061 days (95% CI 1.535, 2.587, P<0.001) and 8.159 days (95% CI 7.183-9.855, P<0.001), respectively.<BR><B>UNASSIGNED: </B>The Ozaki procedure provides a safe surgical technique with low mean cardiopulmonary bypass time and aortic cross-clamp time; moreover, a mean of 2-day-postoperative hospital stay was observed with the Ozaki procedure with a low risk of conversion to aortic valve replacement, reoperation, ICU and hospital stay, and death.
