Replacement of pulmonary artery trunk in sheep using tubular valved heterograft in non-aldehydic preservation [PDF]
, 2012 INTRODUCTION: The cardiac bioprostheses are related to thromboembolic events, infectious and degenerative diseases. Wear is mainly attributed to the denaturation of collagen. Glutaraldehyde, the predominant method of preservation of bioprostheses, favors

Antithrombotic Therapy in Patients with Prosthetic Heart Valves [PDF]
Libyan Journal of Medicine, 2009 Patients with mechanical valve prostheses require a lifelong anticoagulant treatment. The combined use of Warfarin and low-dose aspirin appears to reduce the risk of valve thrombosis and systemic embolism at a low risk of bleeding.

Relationship between fibre orientation and tensile strength of natural collagen membranes for heart valve leaflets [PDF]
, 2011 Heart valve prostheses are used to replace native heart valves which that are damaged because of congenital diseases or due to ageing. Biological prostheses made of bovine pericardium are similar to native valves and do not require any anticoagulation ...
