Key Words	Aortic valve; Surgical; Perceval; Snugger; Sutureless aortic valve
Core Tip	In this article, we are presenting a modified implantation technique of the Perceval sutureless aortic valve prosthesis to enhance proper positioning of the prosthesis and aid the reproducibility of the implantation procedure. The modification involves using snuggers to fix the valve prosthesis to the aortic annulus during deployment.
