Comparative study of wall shear stress at the ascending aorta for different mechanical heart valve prostheses [PDF]
An experimental study is reported which investigates the wall shear stress (WSS) distribution in a transparent model of the human aorta comparing a bileaflet mechanical heart valve (BMHV) with a trileaflet mechanical heart valve (TMHV) in physiological ...

Aortic stenosis (AS) in bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) remains a challenge for transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). BAV is a condition encountered in young adults as well as elderly patients. Frequently we face in clinical practice elderly patients with BAV and severe AS, but there is little evidence concerning TAVI in this population.

Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement in Low-risk Patients With Bicuspid Aortic Valve Stenosis.
Importance The outcomes of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) in low-risk patients with bicuspid aortic valve stenosis have not been studied in a large scale, multicentered, prospective fashion.

Aortic valve and aneurysms [PDF]
Download the Issue @ a Glance podcast Subscribe to the EHJ Podcast ![Graphic][1] The aorta is the highway in the human circulation, and accordingly any functional or structural change is associated with severe symptoms or even a fatal outcome. The aortic valve is the door to the aorta and it opens up to 3 billion times in a lifetime.

Use of Aortic Valve Homografts for Aortic Valve Replacement [PDF]
One hundred sixty-nine patients underwent replacement of the aortic valve with an aortic valve homograft; of these patients 17 had concomitant commissurotomy or annuloplasty for an associated mitral valve lesion. Homografts were prepared by sterilization with beta-propiolactone solution and stored in Hanks' solution, or were prepared by sterilization ...
