The challenges of bioprosthetic heart valves (BHV) with respect to calcification, infection, and poor durability are tackled by surface engineering of hyperbranched poly‐L‐lysine (HBPL), providing a translational solution to improve long‐term valve performance.

ABSTRACT Background Preprocedural planning with multislice computed tomography (MSCT) is an essential prerequisite for successful transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). However, preprocedural planning is time‐consuming and may contain clinically meaningful interobserver variability.

Heart valve disease contributes to cardiovascular disease–associated death. Bioprosthetic heart valves have emerged as a preferred option for heart valve replacement due to their superior hemodynamic performance and reduced need for lifelong ...

ABSTRACT Introduction The prevalence of bioprosthetic aortic valve failure is increasing due to the broader use of bioprosthetic valves, both surgical and transcatheter, and an ageing population. Registry data indicate a higher risk of coronary obstruction and elevated gradients following valve‐in‐valve transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI ...

Mechanistic Insights into Bioprosthetic Heart Valve Calcification and Anti-Calcification Strategies
Prosthetic heart valves are crucial for treating valvular heart disease and serve as substitutes for native valves. Bioprosthetic heart valves (BHVs) are currently the most common type used in clinical practice.

Successful Percutaneous Retrieval of an Embolized MitraClip From the Right Subclavian Artery
ABSTRACT Single leaflet device attachment (SLDA) after mitral transcatheter valve edge‐to‐edge repair (M‐TEER) has been reported in up to 5% of patients. However, complete embolization of the M‐TEER device is exceedingly rare. Device retrievals in all previously reported cases were completed by vascular surgery cut down at the end. In this case, we are

Rosuvastatin attenuates bioprosthetic heart valve calcification [PDF]
There are pathophysiologic similarities between calcification and atherosclerosis because both are the product of an active inflammatory process. The aim of the study was to examine the effects of statin treatment on calcification in commercially available bioprosthetic heart valves.Twenty Sprague-Dawley rats were fed a high-fat diet to induce ...

The paper refers to the safety of MRI in patients with prosthetic heart valves or coronary stents. This condition is commonly regarded as a contraindication for MRI, where patients with these stents or valves are excluded from yielding the diagnostic ...

ABSTRACT Background Acquired aseptic intracardiac communications (AICCs) are rare but clinically relevant structural complications following transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI), typically resulting from mechanical injury to the aortic annulus, interventricular septum, or adjacent structures.
