Structural valve deterioration in the Mitroflow biological heart valve prosthesis [PDF]
European Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 2017 Concern has been raised regarding the long-term durability of the Mitroflow biological heart valve prosthesis. Our aim was to assess the incidence of structural valve degeneration (SVD) for the Mitroflow bioprosthesis in a nationwide study in Denmark including all patients alive in Denmark who had received a Mitroflow aortic bioprosthesis since 2000 ...

Choice of heart valve prosthesis [PDF]
Heart, 2002 It is 40 years since Starr and Edwards' description of successful prosthetic valve replacement in 1961. Some patients who underwent valve replacement with the original Starr-Edwards prosthesis in the 1960s are alive to this day. The Starr-Edwards ball and cage prosthesis, albeit in modified form, is still available commercially.

How rare is isolated rheumatic tricuspid valve disease? [PDF]
, 2020 The incidence of rheumatic fever (RF) has markedly decreased in Europe since the beginning of the 20th century due to improved living conditions, early antibiotic therapy in streptococcal pharyngitis, and changes in serotypes of circulating streptococci.

Structural valve failure of TTK Chitra heart valve prosthesis. [PDF]
Indian J Thorac Cardiovasc Surg, 2023 Mechanical prosthetic valve dysfunction can be structural or non-structural. Structural valve dysfunction includes disc dislodgement, disc fracture, and strut fracture. These events in an implanted valve are rare but could pose a risk to life. TTK Chitra heart valve prosthesis (CHVP), an Indian-made single tilting disc valve, has been implanted since ...
