Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2017 BackgroundThe prevalence of hypo‐attenuated leaflet thickening (HALT) and reduced leaflet motion (RLM) is unknown in surgically implanted bioprostheses because systematic investigation of HALT and/or RLM is limited to a few catheter‐based valves. The aim

Journal of Investigative Medicine High Impact Case Reports, 2018 Transcatheter aortic valve replacement in the setting of failed surgical bioprosthesis (valve-in-valve) is a valuable option for patients with bioprosthetic aortic stenosis or regurgitation who are deemed high risk for repeat open heart surgery. Although

CORONARY PERFUSION:IMPACT OF FLOW DYNAMICS AND GEOMETRIC DESIGN OF TWO DIFFERENT AORTIC PROSTHESES OF SIMILAR SIZE [PDF]
, 2012 BackgroundAortic valve replacement leads to improvement of coronary flow but not to complete normalization. Coronary hypoperfusion contributes to higher left ventricular mass persistence, arrhythmias, congestive heart failure and sudden death.

Thrombosis of Bioprosthetic Aortic Valve: Is the Entire Arsenal Deployed?
Reviews in Cardiovascular MedicineThe proliferation of transcatheter aortic valve implantation has alerted clinicians to a specific type of prosthetic degeneration represented by thrombosis. The pathogenesis of this clinical or subclinical phenomenon, which can occur in up to 15% of both

Prognosis after aortic valve replacement with a bioprosthesis: predictions based on meta-analysis and microsimulation [PDF]
, 2001 BACKGROUND: Bioprostheses are widely used as an aortic valve substitute, but knowledge about prognosis is still incomplete. The purpose of this study was to provide insight into the age-related life expectancy and actual ...
