ABSTRACT Valve‐in‐valve (ViV) Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has emerged as a valid treatment option in symptomatic patients with failed aortic bioprosthetic valves, most especially in those with intermediate, high or prohibitive risk of surgery. Due to the unique design of stentless bioprosthetic valves with absence of visible posts and

The immunogenicity of human cardiac valve allografts in vitro and in vivo [PDF]
Allogeneic transplantation has become an accepted method for the replacement of diseased organs and tissues. The concept of cardiac valve transplantation for the replacement of semilunar valves was introduced by Lam et al in 1952'.

Aortic valve replacement in patients aged 50 to 70 years: Improved outcome with mechanical versus biologic prostheses [PDF]
ObjectiveImproved durability of bioprostheses has led some surgeons to recommend biologic rather than mechanical prostheses for patients younger than 65 years.

ABSTRACT Aims Valve degeneration after DirectFlow implantation poses a challenge for valve‐in‐valve procedures due to its fragile polymeric structure and embolization risk. This study analyzes long‐term follow‐up of patients who underwent TAVI with DF to understand valve degeneration tendencies.

Abstract Aims The extent of irreversible cardiomyocyte necrosis after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a major determinant of residual left ventricular (LV) function and clinical outcome. Cell therapy based on CD34+ cells has emerged as an option to help repair the myocardium and to improve outcomes.
