Sutureless aortic bioprosthesis [PDF]
Aortic valve replacement (AVR) is the treatment of choice for aortic valve disease, with excellent results reported in the short- and long-term follow-up. Due to the increasing number of patient comorbidities and older age, various technical alternatives have been developed such as transcatheter aortic valve implantation and, more recently, sutureless ...

IntroductionCalcification is a main cause of bioprosthetic heart valves failure. It may be promoted by the inflammation developed in the glutaraldehyde (GA)-fixed cusps of the bioprosthesis. We tested the hypothesis that antagonizing the C-X-C chemokines

Porcine or Bovine Tissue Valves: Which are Better for Surgical Aortic Valve Replacement? [PDF]
The choice between mechanical and bioprosthetic aortic valve implants is affected by relatively clear criteria. However, the choice between porcine or pericardial valve is more complex regarding bioprosthetic devices.

Matryoshka procedure for Valve‐in‐Valve TAVI failure
Valve‐in‐valve transcatheter valve implantation (ViV‐TAVI) procedures for deteriorated bioprosthesis are an established therapeutic option for high‐risk patients. The presence of the fixed sewing ring of the bioprosthesis can hamper appropriate expansion

EARLY DEGENERATED BIOPROSTHETIC MITRAL VALVE [PDF]
Mitral valve prolapse (MVP) is fairly common in children, often being randomly found in asymptomatic, as well as in symptomatic patients with conjunctive tissue diseases (CTD). The authors report the case of an 11-yearold girl, diagnosed at the age of 6

Remote Ischemic Preconditioning Neither Improves Survival nor Reduces Myocardial or Kidney Injury in Patients Undergoing Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI) [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Peri-interventional myocardial injury occurs frequently during transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). We assessed the effect of remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) on myocardial injury, acute kidney injury (AKIN) and 6-month ...

Human aortic bioprosthesis [PDF]
We have read with the greatest interest the paper by Wolfgang A. Goetz et al. entitled Truly stentless molded autologous pericardial aortic valve prosthesis with single point attached commissures in a sheep model [1]. We congratulate the authors on their achievements in the development of valve bioprosthesis.
