Objective The aim of this study was to compare outcomes after rapid-deployment aortic
valve replacement (RDAVR) and conventional aortic valve replacement (AVR) from two …

Objective Although it has been demonstrated that the repair rates and quality of the repair of
mitral insufficiency are superior in mitral valve reference centers, it has not been studied …

Background The aim of this study was to analyze early postoperative outcomes and 2-year
survival after aortic valve replacement (AVR) with the sutureless Perceval bioprosthesis …

OBJECTIVES Few data exist on the use of del Nido cardioplegia in adults, specifically
during operations requiring prolonged aortic cross-clamp. In this pilot study, we evaluate …

Conventional surgical aortic valve replacement (AVR) is the 'gold standard'for treatment of
severe or symptomatic aortic valve stenosis. The increasing age of patients and increasing …

Aortic valve replacement through a full sternotomy is the conventional approach for the
treatment of aortic valve stenosis, and clinical outcomes have significantly improved in the …

Background Aortic valve replacement in elderly patients with a small aortic annulus remains
challenging. Patient–prosthesis mismatch (PPM) should be prevented without impacting …

Background The aim of this study is to identify risk predictors that impact long-term prognosis
in patients undergoing isolated aortic valve replacement (AVR) with Perceval sutureless …

Background There is controversy concerning the performance of small aortic prostheses
(size< 21). These have been associated with morbidity and mortality after aortic valve …

Purpose: Perceval sutureless valves have gained popularity. Whether this implant performs
superior to the traditional sutured prosthesis remains unclear. This meta-analysis compared …
