ABSTRACT Paravalvular leak (PVL) is a recognized complication after surgical mitral valve replacement and may cause heart failure, pulmonary hypertension, or hemolysis when moderate or severe. Although redo surgery is the definitive treatment, it carries substantial risk in elderly patients or those with multiple prior cardiac surgeries.

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

ABSTRACT Background Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) in bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) anatomy remains challenging due to anatomical complexity and limited trial data. New‐generation balloon‐expandable valves, such as Myval, require further evaluation in this subgroup.

ABSTRACT Background Accurate bioprosthesis implantation depth during transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is crucial for optimal outcomes. Self‐expanding valves (SEVs) have evolved delivery catheter designs, from a double spine shaft in Evolut PRO+ (PRO + ) to single spine in Evolut FX (FX) and non‐spine in Navitor, to improve access ...

Presence Of A Congenitally Bicuspid Aortic Valve Among Patients Having Combined Mitral And Aortic Valve Replacement [PDF]
Although bicuspid aortic valve occurs in an estimated 1% of adults and mitral valve prolapse in an estimated 5% of adults, occurrence of the 2 in the same patient is infrequent.

Experience with the Mitroflow aortic bioprosthesis [PDF]
From October 1985 to May 1990, the Mitroflow bovine pericardial valve was placed in the aortic position in 168 patients (97 men, 71 women) with a mean age of 69.7 years. Eighty-nine patients had isolated aortic valve replacement, and 79 had aortic valve replacement and additional procedures.

Commissural Misalignment Following Valve‐in‐Valve Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation
ABSTRACT Background Data on commissural misalignment (CMA) during valve‐in‐valve transcatheter aortic valve implantation (ViV‐TAVI) for valve failure after surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) is scarce. Aims To study the impact of CMA on clinical and hemodynamic outcomes following ViV‐TAVI for failed SAVR.
