Mechanical versus bioprosthetic valve replacement in middle-aged patients.
OBJECTIVE The current trend towards decreasing the age for selection of a tissue over a mechanical prosthesis has led to a dilemma for patients aged 50-65 years. This cohort study examines the long-term outcomes of mechanical versus bioprosthetic valves in middle-aged patients. METHODS Patients (N = 659) aged between 50 and 65 years who had first-time aortic valve replacement (AVR) and/or mit...
متن کاملBioprosthetic Valve Fracture Improves the Hemodynamic Results of Valve-in-Valve Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement.
BACKGROUND Valve-in-valve (VIV) transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) may be less effective in small surgical valves because of patient/prosthesis mismatch. Bioprosthetic valve fracture (BVF) using a high-pressure balloon can be performed to facilitate VIV TAVR. METHODS AND RESULTS We report data from 20 consecutive clinical cases in which BVF was successfully performed before or afte...
متن کاملTranscatheter aortic valve replacement for bioprosthetic aortic valve failure: the valve-in-valve procedure.
2542 B ioprosthetic valves are increasingly used in patients with aortic stenosis. Compared with mechanical valves, bio-prosthetic valves are associated with a lower risk of thrombo-embolic events and do not require long-term anticoagulation. 1,2 However, bioprosthetic valves have limited durability; the best current valves can be expected to degenerate within 10 to 20 years, resulting in steno...
متن کاملCardiac crossroads: deciding between mechanical or bioprosthetic heart valve replacement
Nearly 15 million people in the United States suffer from either aortic or mitral valvular disease. For patients with severe and symptomatic valvular heart disease, valve replacement surgery improves morbidity and mortality outcomes. In 2009, 90,000 valve replacement surgeries were performed in the United States. This review evaluates the advantages and disadvantages of mechanical and bioprosth...
متن کاملInflammatory biomarker kinetics after mechanical and bioprosthetic valve replacement.
INTRODUCTION valve disease is an important cause of heart failure. There is a direct relationship between valve deterioration and the patient's inflammatory status and cytokines: interleukin-6, interleukin-1, tumor necrosis factor, and C-reactive protein, involved in this major state of inflammation. OBJECTIVE to report a series of cases of valve replacement, using a bioprosthetic or mechanic...
