Bioprosthesis in hand surgery

Journal of Surgical Research, 1986
In 1965, Carpentier coined the term bioprosthesis to distinguish the characteristics of glutaraldehyde-treated porcine heart valves from untreated or synthetic valves. Observation that the valves functioned normally but were not incorporated by the host has stimulated interest in similarly preserved materials for use in hand surgery.

Hemodynamic features of the freestyle aortic bioprosthesis compared with stented bioprosthesis

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1998
The Freestyle prosthesis is a new stentless aortic bioprosthesis. Anticipated benefits are improved hemodynamics and increased longevity.Doppler echocardiograms were performed early and at 3 to 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years after operation in 157 patients (69 men, 88 women, aged 48 to 85 years) with this prosthesis, and results were compared with ...

Thromboembolism with low profile bioprosthesis

European Heart Journal, 1984
Low profile bioprosthesis late follow-up indicates a low incidence of thromboembolism. For the entire series of 415 consecutively operated patients (rigid and flexible stents) the actuarial probability of freedom at 6 years is 90.3% (87.8% for MVR and 92.27% for AVR and 95.24% for MVR + AVR).

Balloon valvoplasty of mitral bioprosthesis

International Journal of Cardiology, 1991
We describe a case of percutaneous balloon valvoplasty of a stenotic Ionescu-Shiley mitral bioprosthesis with the help of an original emboli-protecting device. The procedure reduced diastolic gradient from 29 to 9 mmHg. The calculated area of the orifice increased from 0.7 to 1.7 cm2.

Pregnancy in patients with a porcine valve bioprosthesis

The American Journal of Cardiology, 1982
Seven patients who became pregnant after valve replacement with a Hancock bioprosthesis were followed up during 8 pregnancies. Six had undergone isolated mitral valve replacement, and 1 had mitral and aortic valve replacement. Their age at the time of operation ranged from 14 to 31 years (average 24); delivery occurred 21 to 88 months (average 51.3 ...

The Hancock II bioprosthesis at ten years

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1995
The Hancock II bioprosthesis was used for heart valve replacement in 843 patients from 1982 to 1993. Aortic valve replacement (AVR) was performed in 536 patients, mitral valve replacement (MVR) in 250, and aortic and mitral valve replacement (DVR) in 57. The mean age was 64 +/- 12 years.

A rare case of aortic bioprosthesis thrombosis

Acta Cardiologica, 2010
Chronic thrombosis of the Carpentier-Edwards SAV porcine aortic bioprosthesis is a very rare complication.We present the case of an 80-year-old male patient with dyspnoea NYHA class III 30 months after coronary artery bypass grafting and aortic valve replacement.
