Performance of xenogeneic pulmonary visceral pleura as bioprosthetic heart valve cusps in swine
ObjectiveBovine pericardium is common biological material for bioprosthetic heart valve. There remains a significant need, however, to improve bioprosthetic valves for longer-term outcomes.

Intracardiac Echocardiography to Diagnose Bioprosthetic Pulmonary Valve Thrombosis
A 48-year-old woman presented with heart failure and bioprosthetic pulmonary valve regurgitation 2 years after pulmonary valve replacement. Intracardiac echocardiography demonstrated uniform thickening of a single prosthetic valve leaflet suggesting ...

Very little is known about the occurrence of bioprosthetic tricuspid valve stenosis in the Indian population that usually occurs within 8–10 years following tricuspid valve replacement (TVR) with a bioprosthetic valve.

Dynamic Echocardiographic Imaging of a Valve-in-Valve Mitral Prosthesis
Dynamic imaging of heart valves and specifically prosthetic valves is a central benefit of echocardiography. Most bioprosthetic heart valves degenerate over a given time and hence require repeat valve replacement which carries a significant risk of ...

Valve in valve and valve in ring transcatheter aortic valve implantation [PDF]
In recent years the trend towards surgical bioprosthetic valve implantation, especially among young patients, has increased in order to avoid anticoagulant therapy. The patient’s age remains one of the leading risk factors for valve dysfunction.

Recurrent infective endocarditis causing heart valve failure: A case report
Infective endocarditis (IE) is an infection that does not usually respond rapidly to treatment, often because its early symptoms are non-specific. The diseased valves (native or bioprosthetic) may be calcified and the thrombotic vegetations on them ...

Imaging of Bioprosthetic Valve Dysfunction after Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has become the standard of care in elderly high-risk patients with symptomatic severe aortic stenosis. Recently, TAVI has been increasingly performed in younger-, intermediate- and lower-risk populations ...

Bioprosthetic Aortic Valve Fracture During Valve-in-valve Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation
The limited durability of surgical bioprostheses, combined with an ageing population, has led to an increasing demand for replacing degenerated bioprosthetic surgical heart valves, which is projected to increase. Valve-in-valve transcatheter aortic valve
