Edwards Intuity Aortic Bioprosthesis in Patient with Bicuspid Aortic Valve
نویسندگان
چکیده
Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is generally considered to be a contraindication to sutureless aortic valve replacement (AVR). Implantation of the Edwards Intuity aortic bioprosthesis is an innovative approach associated with superior hemodynamic performance, significantly reduced myocardial ischaemia and cardiopulmonary bypass times and proves to be suitable for type 1 and 2 of bicuspid aortic valves replacement. We report a case of successful AVR using a fast deployment bioprosthesis,the Edwards Intuity Valve System, in a 67-year-old woman with a bicuspid aortic valve and concomitant severe aortic stenosis.

Aortic valve replacement with a rapid deployment Edwards Intuity bioprosthesis using a completely video-guided approach.
We describe the case of a 54-year-old female with severe aortic stenosis and a background of severe comorbidities including prior radiotherapy for Hodgkin’s lymphoma, splenectomy, severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, scleroderma with laryngeal and esophageal involvement, and systemic and pulmonary hypertension. The patient underwent totally video-guided aortic valve replacement through...

Aims/Objectives The aim of this study is to review our results with the Edwards Intuity Elite sutureless bioprosthetic aortic valve. Methods The perioperative data of patients who underwent aortic valve replacement during the last year by sutureless bioprotheses (Edwards Intuity Elite, n = 7) were reviewed retrospectively and compared to those who received a conventional bioprostheses (Edwards ...
متن کامل'Fast-implantable' aortic valve implantation and concomitant mitral procedures.
Concomitant aortic and mitral valve replacement or concomitant aortic valve replacement and mitral repair can be a challenge for the cardiac surgeon: in particular, because of their structure and design, two bioprosthetic heart valves or an aortic valve prosthesis and a rigid mitral ring can interfere at the level of the mitroaortic junction. Therefore, when a mitral bioprosthesis or a rigid mi...
متن کاملBicuspid Aortic Valve: An Unusual Cause of Aneurysm of Left Coronary Sinus of Valsalva
Bicuspid aortic valve is traditionally considered an innocuous congenital anomaly. Due to a better and widespread availability of non-invasive imaging techniques, it has come to the fore that 30% of these cases develop complications, viz., valve abnormality (aortic regurgitation and stenosis), and aneurysm of aortic root and ascending aorta. Sinus of Valsalva aneurysm is an uncommon complicatio...
متن کاملTreatment of cardiogenic shock in severe aortic stenosis with the Edwards INTUITY valve.
We report the first known cases of successful implantation of the Edwards INTUITY (Edwards Lifesciences LLC, Irvine, CA) rapid-deployment valve in 3 patients with aortic stenosis presenting under emergency cardiogenic shock. At the 6-month follow-up, the 3 patients showed improved left ventricular function and improved functional capacity.
