The diseased native aortic valve is removed and the aortic annulus completely decalcified. To ensure correct positioning of the prosthesis, three guiding threads are used as reference for accurate ...

Importantly, the Medtronic CoreValve device, as well as a subcoronary anchor point at the aortic annulus, has a supra-coronary anchor point at the outflow of the device. This means the proximal ...

This method is widely used and repeatable.9 14 Valve weights were also indexed to the annulus area. In the AVCa cohort, aortic valves were excised at surgery, placed in a container filled with ...

Shetty observed. “Risk factors for late autograft dysfunction include a dilated aortic annulus and ascending aorta.” “Stabilization of the aortic annulus and pulmonary autograft will improve ...

Navitor Vision enhances visibility and precision in TAVI procedures, offering a less invasive alternative to surgical aortic ...

Indeed, it is difficult to find an unequivocal definition of the annulus, a structure appearing most frequently in the context of cardiac surgery.1 This review describes the arrangement of the aortic ...

In patients with a borderline annulus size, the valve was selected based on aortic root size, extent of leaflet calcification and individual life expectancy. The PVL was assessed using transthoracic ...
