Valve-in-Valve Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation for Degenerated Bioprosthetic Heart Valves [PDF]
We sought to analyze outcomes of patients with degenerated surgically implanted bioprosthetic heart valves undergoing valve-in-valve (viv) transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI).Redo cardiac surgery for degenerated bioprosthetic heart valves is associated with increased risks, particular in elderly patients with comorbidities.

Bioprosthetic Aortic Valve Fracture During Valve-in-valve Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation [PDF]
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

Development of methods for the tissue engineering of cardiac valves using mesenchymal stem cells [PDF]
Cardiac valve replacement is the second most common heart operation in the Western World. Valve replacements currently available are poorly adapted for use in young patients who typically require multiple re-operations as they grow, resulting in ...

Clinical outcomes after implantation of bioprosthetic valves in adults with congenital heart disease
Background: Bioprosthetic valves are frequently implanted in adults with congenital heart disease (CHD), but comprehensive data on bioprosthetic valve longevity and outcomes across all valve positions are lacking.
