From Clinic to Computation: Multiscale Bioengineering Strategies for Durable Biological Aortic Valve Replacements

Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 39, 14 May 2026.
Bioprosthetic aortic valves have revolutionized the treatment of aortic stenosis, but their durability is limited by structural valve deterioration (SVD). This review focuses on the pericardial tissue at the heart of these valves, examining how its mechanical properties and calcification drive fatigue and failure.

Transcatheter valve-in-valve implantation vs. reoperative mitral valve surgery for failing surgical prosthesis [PDF]

, 2021
The incidence of degenerated mitral bioprosthesis is increasing in clinical practice due to a greater use of biological prostheses for mitral valve replacement compared to mechanical valves and increased life expectancy after cardiac surgery.

Changes in mitral annular morphology following transcatheter mitral valve repair. Clinical repercussion and importance of etiology

REC: Interventional Cardiology (English Ed.), 2019
Introduction and objectives: Mitral regurgitation is one society’s most prevalent valvular diseases. Transcatheter mitral valve repair with the MitraClip system has become more widely used for the management of this condition.

A Soft Robotic Model for Simulating Heart Valve Disease and Cardiac Interventions

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 27, 13 May 2026.
This paper introduces a fully synthetic fabrication methodology for a soft robotic, in‐vitro model of the left‐heart, complete with a functioning mitral valve apparatus. With a view towards patient‐specific modeling, we demonstrate physiological flow and pressure waveforms, tunable mitral valve function with clinical imaging compatibility, and its use ...

Long‐Term Impact of Prosthesis‐Patient Mismatch After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement in Patients With Small Aortic Annuli

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, Volume 107, Issue 6, Page 1763-1773, May 1, 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Prosthesis‐patient mismatch (PPM) remains common following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and is associated with worse clinical outcomes. PPM is of particular concern in small aortic annuli (SAA). Aims To compare the incidence, predictors, and long‐term impact of PPM in SAA TAVR.
