The occurrence of significant AR after TAVI can be predicted by anatomic and procedural variables. A model such as that presented can be used to select suitable patients for this procedure and guide operators during implantation of the device.
Organotypic heart slices represent a multicellular model of the human myocardium and a novel platform for studies ranging from the investigation of molecular interactions to tissue engineering.
These up to 22 years data show that the subcoronary Ross procedure continues to provide an excellent tissue aortic valve replacement. The suggested valve performance classification emerged as a practical concept for outcome analysis with the probability of 79% being in the favorable class I or II at 20 years.

1-Year Outcomes After
Hemodynamics closely relating to those of volunteers were confirmed in sinus prostheses, believed to grant physiological valve function. Minor differences are presumably attributed to graft compliance and temporal resolution of the acquisition. Nevertheless, long-term deterioration of valve function as it was described for straight grafts could potentially be decelerated using sinus prostheses.
The individualized, multifactorial management of AA in patients with BAV during aortic valve surgery leads to excellent results. The threshold AA diameter for intervention (AoP or AAR) varied from 34 to 51 mm (mean, 43.9). BAV type 2/unicuspid and BAV type 1 LR with regurgitation emerged as determinants for more liberal AAR in our practice. Longer term follow-up is necessary to confirm our conclusions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
