Bioprosthetic Heart Valves: Impact of Implantation on Biomaterials [PDF]

, 2018
Prosthetic heart valves are commonly used in the treatment of valvular heart disease. Mechanical valves are more durable than the bioprosthetic valves; however, the need for long-term anticoagulant therapy renders them unsuitable for some patient groups.

Effect of cyclic deformation on xenogeneic heart valve biomaterials.

PLoS ONE, 2019
Glutaraldehyde-fixed bovine pericardium is currently the most popular biomaterial utilized in the creation of bioprosthetic heart valves. However, recent studies indicate that glutaraldehyde fixation results in calcification and structural valve ...

Direct oral anticoagulation in atrial fibrillation and heart valve surgery—a meta-analysis and systematic review

Therapeutic Advances in Cardiovascular Disease, 2022
Aims: Oral anticoagulation with direct oral anticoagulants (DOAC) could provide an alternative to vitamin K antagonists (VKA) for patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) undergoing bioprosthetic heart valve replacement or valve repair. Methods and results:

Comparative Outcomes of Transcatheter Versus Surgical Pulmonary Valve Replacement in Adults With Congenital Heart Disease

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, Volume 108, Issue 3, Page 792-800, September 1, 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Pulmonary valve replacement is frequently required in adults with congenital heart disease (CHD). Comparative real‐world outcomes between percutaneous transcatheter pulmonary valve implantation (TPVR) and surgical pulmonary valve replacement (SPVR) remain incompletely characterized. We evaluated outcomes and resource utilization for

Transcatheter Tricuspid Valve-in-Valve Replacement by Transatrial Approach

Applied Sciences, 2020
Reoperation on the tricuspid valve after prior heart valve surgery is associated with an increased operative risk due to a poor clinical status with severe heart failure and late presentation.

Direct Oral Anticoagulants for Stroke Prevention in Special Populations: Beyond the Clinical Trials

Biomedicines, 2023
Currently, direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) are the first-line anticoagulant strategy in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF). They are characterized by a more favorable pharmacological profile than warfarin, having demonstrated equal ...

Consecutive Emergency Carotid Artery Stenting and Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement in a Patient With Cardiogenic Shock: A Case Report

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, Volume 108, Issue 3, Page 1047-1051, September 1, 2026.
ABSTRACT Severe aortic stenosis (AS) carries a poor prognosis when symptomatic, particularly in cardiogenic shock (CS). Emergency transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is rarely performed but may represent a rescue therapy. Coexistent carotid artery stenosis (CAS) further increases procedural risk.

Durability of bioprosthetic aortic valves in patients under the age of 60 years – rationale and design of the international INDURE registry

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2020
Background There is an ever-growing number of patients requiring aortic valve replacement (AVR). Limited data is available on the long-term outcomes and structural integrity of bioprosthetic valves in younger patients undergoing surgical AVR. Methods The
