We should also emphasize that implantation of a small prosthesis does not necessarily result in PPM, and can be perfectly adequate in a patient with small body size. In conclusion, PPM is a ...

The team has proposed ‘supra-annular structure’ concept based on imaging ... to more stable valve deployment and optimized interaction between the prosthesis and the aortic root.

cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (cMRI) is the test of choice in evaluation of aortic arch anomalies. cMRI allows evaluation of physiology that is comparable to that obtained by catheterization.

Medical history included a minor stroke, a mechanical aortic valve prosthesis, and aortic ectasia. His vital parameters were normal. Auscultation detected no murmurs apart from prosthetic clicking.

Awareness of the clinical significance of thoracic aortic aneurismal ... replacement of the valve and root with a composite mechanical conduit or tissue root prosthesis, and results are excellent.

Opens in a new tab or window LOS ANGELES -- Survival outcomes favored mechanical valves for isolated surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) for people until age 60, after which a tissue valve ...

can occur as a complication of aortic valve endocarditis and is more common on a prosthetic aortic valve. This is diagnosed predominantly on transesophageal echocardiography. The ECG can show an ...

A late-breaking study presented today at the 2025 Society of Thoracic Surgeons (STS) Annual Meeting reveals that mechanical aortic valve ... analysis to date of prosthetic valve outcomes ...
