Impact of Aortomitral Continuity Calcification on Conduction Disturbances After TAVI with the Myval Valve. Abstract Background Given the anatomical proximity of the cardiac conduction system, aortomitral continuity calcification (AMCC) may contribute to conduction disturbances (CD) during transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) due to radial ...

Clinical Results for Cardiovascular Xenografts Treated With Novel Anticalcification Protocols
This study demonstrates the safety, efficacy, and clinical performance of the tissue‐engineered Periborn bovine pericardial scaffold treated with our novel anticalcification protocols for surgical repair of a variety of cardiovascular diseases. The overall probability of freedom from Periborn‐related reoperation was 95.4% ± 3.2% at 9 years.
