A Bayesian constitutive model selection framework for biaxial mechanical testing of planar soft tissues: application to porcine aortic valves [PDF]
A variety of constitutive models have been developed for soft tissue mechanics. However, there is no established criterion to select a suitable model for a specific application. Although the model that best fits the experimental data can be deemed the most suitable model, this practice often can be insufficient given the inter-sample variability of ...

Background A unicuspid aortic valve is a rare congenital cardiac abnormality. Despite its uncommon finding on an initial presentation, aortic insufficiency is accompanied with unicuspid aortic valve and this might reflect the natural history of ...

Prosthesis–patient mismatch is less frequent and more clinically indolent in patients operated for aortic insufficiency [PDF]
ObjectiveTo date, no study has focused on the incidence and effects of prosthesis–patient mismatch in patients requiring aortic valve replacement for aortic insufficiency. We hypothesized that the incidence and implications of prosthesis–patient mismatch

Left ventricular non-compaction in a patient with ankylosing spondylitis [PDF]
A 58 years old male with a long-standing history of HLA-B27 positive ankylosing spondylitis presented with increasing fatigue and dyspnea on exertion. He had left ventricular dysfunction and enlargement, flail right coronary leaflet of aortic valve with ...

Quadriscupid aortic valve with concurrent aortic stenosis and insufficiency [PDF]
We present the case of a 22-year-old man with a congenital mixed aortic valve dysfunction who underwent cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) for the assessment of aortic valve morphology and function prior to valve replacement.
