Early Structural Valve Deterioration of the Mitroflow Aortic Bioprosthesis [PDF]
There has been a trend toward more frequent use of bioprosthetic valves, especially in the young generations, over the last decade.1,2 According to the Society of Thoracic Surgeons database, use of bioprosthetic valve increased from 44% in 1996 to 78% in 2006 in North America.1 Freedom from warfarin use and restrictions on diet and activities make ...

Structural Deterioration Localisation Using Enhanced Autoregressive Time-Series Analysis [PDF]
Irrespective to how well structures were built, they all deteriorate. Herein, deterioration is defined as a slow and continuous reduction of structural performance, which if prolonged can lead to damage. Deterioration occurs due to different factors such

Bioprosthetic Valve Deterioration
Summary: Histologic evaluations revealed excessive accumulations of macrophages and absence of fibroblastic interstitial cells in explanted bioprosthetic valves. Comprehensive gene and protein expression analysis and histology unveiled an accumulation of

Endothelial monolayer disruption in bioprosthetic heart valve as a trigger of primary tissue failure
Aim. To study the surface and cellular composition of non-calcified bioprosthetic heart valve (BHV) leaflets with varying degrees of structural deterioration to determine the possible mechanisms of primary tissue failure development.Materials and methods.

Considerations When Evaluating Structural Valve Deterioration
Rodriguez-Gabella et al. [(1)][1] have recently published outcomes of 672 patients who underwent aortic valve replacement focusing on structural valve deterioration (SVD). The authors warned about the difficulty of comparing studies due to the different definitions of SVD.

Early Structural Deterioration of a Sutureless Bioprosthetic Aortic Valve
Sutureless bioprosthetic valves such as the Sorin Perceval S valve (SPV) have been used in patients with aortic stenosis that require surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR). These prostheses have been marketed on the basis of their rapid implantation techniques with avoidance of sutures and reduced aortic cross-clamp times.
