Transcatheter mitral valve replacement versus redo surgery for mitral prosthesis failure: A systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]
BackgroundTranscatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) has emerged as an alternative to redo surgery. TMVR compared with redo surgical mitral valve replacement (SMVR) in patients with mitral prosthesis failure remains limited.

Early stenotic prosthesis failure after implantation of a stentless porcine aortic valve prosthesis [PDF]
Stentless biological aortic prostheses are used routinely in aortic valve replacement surgery, offering beneficial hemodynamics compared to stented biological valves of similar size. We report here a rare case of early stenotic prosthesis failure of a RootElan stentless porcine aortic valve prosthesis due to swelling at the bottom of the right coronary

Modes of failure of Trifecta aortic valve prosthesis
Abstract OBJECTIVES Several concerns have been recently raised regarding the durability of Trifecta prostheses. Different mechanisms of early failure were reported. Our aim was to study in a large population the modes of failure of Trifecta valves.

Dual-Modular Stems for Primary Total Hip Arthroplasty
In primary total hip arthroplasty (THA), dual-modular stems were introduced to better restore hip stability, femoral offset, and leg length. This entry highlights the gathered knowledge about dual-modular stems and related complications in combinations ...

Catastrophic failure of a monolithic zirconia prosthesis
Recently, monolithic zirconia restorations have received attention as an alternative to zirconia veneered with feldspathic porcelain to eliminate chipping failures of veneer ceramics. In this clinical report, a patient with mandibular edentulism received 4 dental implants in the interforaminal area, and a screw-retained monolithic zirconia prosthesis ...
