Current Opinion in Cardiology, 1993
Progress in valve repair and replacement continued over the past year. Aortic valve repair for aortic insufficiency appears promising, and aortic decalcification may still be a useful alternative in certain cases of aortic stenosis. Mitral valve repair, well accepted for myxomatous valves, presents a challenge in ischemic disease.

Valve‐in‐valve‐in‐valve: Treating endocarditis of a transcatheter heart valve
Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, 2015Transcatheter heart valve endocarditis is a rare, but life threatening complication. We describe the case of a patient who was successfully treated by transcatheter aortic valve‐in‐valve‐in‐valve replacement with a favorable 1‐year outcome, despite severe early complications. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A heart valve prosthesis comprising: a support structure comprising a framework deformable between an expanded state and a compressed state and vice versa; and a flow-control structure, supported by the support structure, for permitting blood flow in a first direction, and for restricting blood flow in a direction opposite to the first direction.

Valvular heart disease, infected valves and prosthetic heart valves
The American Journal of Cardiology, 1990The major causes of systemic embolism from valvular heart disease (mitral, aortic and mitral valve prolapse), prosthetic valves (both mechanical and tissue valves) and infected valves (endocarditis) are reviewed from the standpoint of their incidence and complications.

Mechanical heart valve cavitation
Expert Review of Medical Devices, 2004Cavitation was first directly related to mechanical heart valves in the mid 1980s after a series of valve failures observed with the Edwards-Duromedics valve. The damages observed indicated that cavitation could be responsible. Later, several in vitro studies visualized the bubble formation and collapse of cavitation at mechanical heart valves.
