Undiagnosed mitroflow bioprosthesis deformation causing early structural valve deterioration
Bioprosthesis are commonly used in the elderly population. Structural valve deterioration affects the long-term durability. We report an early deterioration of a Mitroflow valve caused by ring deformation and prosthetic leaflet rupture.

ABSTRACT Background The EMPIRE I study assessed the early (30 days) safety and efficacy of a new fully repositionable delivery system (IMPERIA) for the commercially available ALLEGRA transcatheter aortic valve in patients with either severe native aortic stenosis or a degenerated surgical bioprosthesis.

Evaluation of aortic bioprosthesis stenosis by multidetector CT.
Because visualization the bioprosthesis leaflets is often hampered by shadowing artifacts from to the metal in the annulus or the struts, visualization and determination of the etiology of bioprosthesis valve dysfunction may be often difficult by ...

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.

Abdominal wall repair with acellular bovine pericardial membranes - Part I - Clinical and radiological findings [PDF]
Introduction: Reducing recurrence rates significantly, the use of biomaterials as “reinforcement meshes” in the repair of different abdominal wall defects has become an almost mandatory routine for the success of these repairs.

ABSTRACT Background Development of conduction abnormalities requiring pacing after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is relatively common. The effects of post‐TAVR permanent pacemaker (PPM) implantation on mortality, ischemic stroke, and cardiovascular outcomes remain incompletely characterized.

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

3D flow topology behind an aortic valve bioprosthesis [PDF]
We have developed a hydraulic flow loop to replicate the flow conditions in the ascending aorta. The setup features a measurement cell with a silicone phantom of the aortic root.

ABSTRACT Warfarin remains the cornerstone of anticoagulation therapy following mechanical heart valve replacement. However, challenging anticoagulation responses, resistance to warfarin, and even more rarely to both warfarin and heparin pose significant clinical challenges and complicate management strategies.
