Statins for progression of aortic valve stenosis and the best evidence for making decisions in health care

São Paulo Medical Journal, 2011
In the Western world, calcified aortic valve stenosis is the most common form of valvular heart disease, affecting up to 3% of adults over the age of 75 years.

A Completely Endovascular Solution for Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation Embolisation and Inversion into the Aortic ArchWhat this paper adds

EJVES Vascular Forum, 2021
Introduction: Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has evolved into the preferred alternative to surgical valve replacement for severe aortic valve stenosis with high surgical risk.

Raman Microscopy at the Organic–Inorganic Interfaces in Human Calcified Aortic Valves Shows the Co‐Existence of Whitlockite Crystals and Carbonated Hydroxyapatite‐Mineralized Collagen Fibrils

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study advances our understanding of aortic valve stenosis by capturing spatially resolved chemical and structural changes at the nanoscale. The findings highlight the potential of combined Raman and electron microscopy for understanding calcification mechanisms across diverse tissue types.

Rapid progression of aortic stenosis in a 3-month-old infant with bicuspid aortic valve and DeSanto-Shinawi syndrome

Annals of Pediatric Cardiology, 2021
A 3-month-old female was diagnosed at 1 month of age with DeSanto-Shinawi syndrome (DSS) and bicuspid aortic valve with trivial stenosis. The aortic valve stenosis progressed to severe within 2 months and required balloon aortic valvuloplasty.

Patient-specific image-based computer simulation for theprediction of valve morphology and calcium displacement after TAVI with the Medtronic CoreValve and the Edwards SAPIEN valve [PDF]

, 2016
AIMS: Our aim was to validate patient-specific software integrating baseline anatomy and biomechanical properties of both the aortic root and valve for the prediction of valve morphology and aortic leaflet calcium displacement after TAVI.

From Clinic to Computation: Multiscale Bioengineering Strategies for Durable Biological Aortic Valve Replacements

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Bioprosthetic aortic valves have revolutionized the treatment of aortic stenosis, but their durability is limited by structural valve deterioration (SVD). This review focuses on the pericardial tissue at the heart of these valves, examining how its mechanical properties and calcification drive fatigue and failure.

Unicuspid Aortic Stenosis in a Patient with Turner Syndrome: A Case Report

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2014
Congenital aortic valve anomalies are the cause of premature aortic stenosis in pediatric and younger adult populations. Despite being very rare, unicuspid aortic valves account for approximately 5% of isolated aortic valve replacements.

One-stop transcatheter aortic valve replacement and fenestrated endovascular aortic aneurysm repair: A case report

Radiology Case Reports
The management of patients with severe aortic valve stenosis and an abdominal aortic aneurysm is a real therapeutic challenge. Minimally invasive treatment is more beneficial than open surgery for treating both aortic valve stenosis and abdominal aortic ...
