Human aortic bioprosthesis [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean 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.

Pulsed Cavitational Ultrasound Softening

open access: yesJACC: Basic to Translational Science, 2017
The authors propose a novel noninvasive therapeutic approach for degenerative calcified bioprosthetic heart valves based on pulsed cavitational ultrasound (PCU) to improve the valvular function by remotely softening calcified stiff cusps. This study aims

Long-term survival after aortic valve replacement with the Mitroflow bioprosthesis : a comparative study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Background Recent case reports of early structural degeneration of the Mitroflow valve have cast doubts on the suitability of this bioprosthesis, particularly in the smaller sizes, and in younger patients.
