Journal of Medical Case Reports, 2012 Introduction Mechanical valves in the tricuspid position may be prone to thrombosis with even brief lapses in anticoagulation. The management of patients with a history of recurrent mechanical tricuspid valve thrombosis who require noncardiac surgery is ...

JA Clinical Reports, 2020 Background Mechanical aortic valve dysfunction is a rare but potentially fatal complication. It is usually caused by thrombosis, vegetation, and pannus overgrowth. However, it very rarely occurs immediately after the cardiopulmonary bypass weaning period.

Reviews in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022 Aortic interventions remain the most effective treatment for severe aortic stenosis. In the recent years, advances in bioprosthetics and newer data have reduced the cut-off age for the use of bioprosthetic valves in younger patients, but the debate on ...

Valve-in-valve or super imposition of mechanical valves on impacted bioprostheses [PDF]
European Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 1997 We read with interest the paper written by Geha et al. (Eur J Cardiothorac Surg 10:1090-1096) about a new approach for replacement of degenerated mitral bioprosthesis. We have made the first report of a ‘valve-in-valve’ or what we call ‘super imposition’ of a Carbomedic me- chanical valve (Carbomedics, Austin, TX, USA) in the aortic position over an ...

Triple Valve Replacement With Bileaflet Mechanical Valves
Japanese Circulation Journal, 2001 A more durable mechanical valve may be a better choice for the tricuspid position than a bioprosthesis when the patient already has mechanical prosthesis in the left side of the heart. Eleven cases of triple valve replacement (total follow-up period, 49.5 patient years), all with mechanical valves, are reviewed to assess optimal valve selection.
