Sutureless aortic bioprosthesis [PDF]
Interactive CardioVascular and Thoracic Surgery, 2017 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 ...

Matryoshka procedure for Valve‐in‐Valve TAVI failure
Clinical Case Reports, 2022 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

Human aortic bioprosthesis [PDF]
European Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 2008 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.

Is distortion of the bioprosthesis ring a risk factor for early calcification ?
Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2010 Background As the population ages, bioprosthesis are increasingly being used in cardiac valve replacement. Pericardial bioprosthesis combine an excellent hemodynamic performance with low thrombogenicity, but valve failure associated with calcification ...
