Percutaneous pulmonary valve implantation (PPVI) is superior to bare metal stenting (BMS) for the treatment of right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) obstruction in patients with congenital heart ...

Objectives: To evaluate the feasibility of percutaneous aortic valve replacement without cardiac arrest in animal experiments. Methods: A self expanding nitinol stent, containing pulmonary valves from ...

If you apply pressure circumferentially to the valve stent, the three-pointed star will twist — what we call ‘pinwheeling’ — and if you expand it radially, it will leak.” The idea came ...

Although a flow diverter stent is one of the most effective and widely used devices, its placement is sometimes challenging. Objective To evaluate the feasibility and safety of the CorPath GRX robotic ...

Stent implantation followed by kissing balloon ... and aim to use gentle balloon dilatation to facilitate insertion of the large-bore valve delivery sheath. Maintaining flow distal to the sheath ...

Additionally, to address the risk to the aortic valve and left ventricle, it features a soft, tapered tip, which allows for safe placement proximally, enhancing the seal in the ascending arch (zone 0) ...

Gadag: The Gadag Institute of Medical Sciences (GIMS) has set up a state-of-the-art cath lab for cardiac treatment at a cost ...

She represented with recurrent chest infections and left lung collapse, thus necessitating removal and replacement of the LMB stent. The patient also had aortic valve stenosis and required corrective ...
