On-pump fibrillating heart mitral valve replacement with the SAPIEN™ XT transcatheter heart valve [PDF]
In some high-risk patients, standard mitral valve replacement can represent a challenging procedure, requiring a risky extensive decalcification of the annulus. In particular, high-risk redo patients and patients with a previously implanted transcatheter
