Patient-specific image-based computer simulation for theprediction of valve morphology and calcium displacement after TAVI with the Medtronic CoreValve and the Edwards SAPIEN valve [PDF]
AIMS: Our aim was to validate patient-specific software integrating baseline anatomy and biomechanical properties of both the aortic root and valve for the prediction of valve morphology and aortic leaflet calcium displacement after TAVI.

Same-Day Discharge After Transcatheter Native Aortic and Mitral Valve-in-Valve Replacement
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement has become the gold standard of care in the management of patients with severe aortic stenosis and transcatheter mitral valve-in-valve replacement seems to be an attractive alternative to redo surgery. We report the

Late Type A Dissection After Transfemoral Aortic Valve Replacement
An 87-year-old woman had residual moderate to severe aortic insufficiency following transcatheter aortic valve replacement. A year later, she developed extensive Stanford type A aortic dissection originating at the supra-annular aortic edge of the ...

The Current Perspectives in Valve-in-Valve Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement [PDF]
The increased use of bioprostheses in aortic valve replacement has led to increased number of patients with structural valve degeneration. Since reoperation for failed bioprostheses carries a high risk, a valve-in-valve transcatheter aortic valve ...

Miniaturized Devices for On‐the‐Spot Generation of Small‐Diameter Vascular Grafts
An intracorporeal extrusion device is developed for on‐the‐spot generation of vascular grafts with tunable diameters spanning from 1 to 6 mm. The device uses biomimetic polymers and light, to promptly obtaining biocompatible and high‐burst pressure‐resistant grafts.
