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 ...

ABSTRACT Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has changed the treatment of aortic stenosis. The Myval transcatheter heart valve (THV), a novel balloon‐expandable THV, has shown promising outcomes. Our aim is to compare the comparative safety and effectiveness of Myval THV against established THVs, such as Sapien and Evolut.

ABSTRACT Valve‐in‐valve (ViV) Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has emerged as a valid treatment option in symptomatic patients with failed aortic bioprosthetic valves, most especially in those with intermediate, high or prohibitive risk of surgery. Due to the unique design of stentless bioprosthetic valves with absence of visible posts and

ABSTRACT Background Plug‐based vascular closure devices (Pb‐VCD) and suture‐based vascular closure devices (Sb‐VCD) are used for percutaneous vascular access site closure during transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). Until now, no clear superiority of either device was shown in studies comparing 18 F VCDs solely.

TAVI nel trattamento della stenosi aortica degenerativa: stato dell’arte e prospettive [PDF]
Degenerative aortic stenosis is the most common form of heart valve disease in developed countries and predominantly affects the elderly. Aortic valve replacement (AVR) has been the gold standard, but recently, transcatheter aortic valve implantation has

Endoscopic Aortic Valve Replacement
During the last 8 years, many different approaches for minimally invasive aortic valve surgery have emerged. We have developed a technique that enables total endoscopic aortic valve replacement with port access, via a small right lateral thoracotomy with only soft tissue retraction and minimally invasive aortic crossclamping. The operation is performed

Using Shockwave Lithotripsy to Treat Severe Calcified Mitral Stenosis in a Pregnant Woman
ABSTRACT Rheumatic mitral stenosis (MS) with significant calcification presents challenges for both surgical and transcatheter interventions. Percutaneous balloon mitral valvuloplasty (PBMV) is often limited in these cases due to valve rigidity, increasing the risk of mitral regurgitation (MR).
