Tricuspid valved stent implantation: novel stent with a self-expandable super-absorbent polymer.
OBJECTIVE Trans-catheter aortic and pulmonary valve replacement procedures can result in favorable outcomes in selected patients. The aim of this study was to investigate the functioning of a novel self-expanding valved stent with super-absorbent polymer (SAP) for minimally invasive replacement of the tricuspid valve. METHODS A newly designed nitinol stent with SAP was specially designed for ...
متن کاملOff-pump tricuspid valved stent implantation: the next step.
OBJECTIVES Off-pump transcatheter valved stent implantation could be a treatment option for patients suffering from symptomatic tricuspid regurgitation (TR) who are classified as inoperable. In this study, we present our recent short-term results of transventricular tricuspid valved stent implantation and compare different stent types for atrial anchorage. METHODS Fifteen pigs received a self...
متن کاملOff-bypass implantation of a self-expandable valved stent between inferior vena cava and right atrium.
A glutaraldehyde preserved valved bovine jugular xenograft mounted in a nitinol 'Z' stent, expandable from 7 to 28 mm of internal diameter, was evaluated in vitro (column of water developing a pressure of 45 mmHg and a mock loop including a pulsatile pump) and in vivo in five adult pigs with intra-vascular ultrasound to measure the inferior vena cava diameter via a retroperitoneal access. Throu...
متن کاملAcquired Infrarenal Abdominal Aortic Coarctation: Treatment with Percutaneous Self Expandable Stent
Abdominal aortic coarctation is an extremely rare vascular pathology. Its etiology can be congenital or acquired. Here we present a case of acquired infrarenal abdominal coarctation in a 66-year-old woman who complained of low back and legs pain. She had no signs of resting lower limb ischemia, with diminished distal pulses and normal blood pressure in upper and lower extremities. Magnetic reso...
متن کاملEndoscopic removal of a broken self-expandable metal stent using the stent-in-stent technique.
A 55-year-old man with dysphagia due to an unresectable distal esophageal adenocarcinoma underwent placement of a 15-cm partially covered self-expandable metal stent (SEMS), diameter 18mm (Ultraflex; Boston Scientific, Natick, Massachusetts, USA). After 3 months, he presented with recurrent dysphagia. At endoscopy, the meshes of the SEMS had broken, leading to collapse of the SEMS and obstructi...
