OBJECTIVES Many surgeons develop unique techniques for unmet needs for right
ventricular outflow reconstruction to resolve pulmonary regurgitation after corrective surgery …

Valved conduits often correct the blood flow of congenital heart disease by connecting the
right ventricle to the pulmonary artery (RV-PA). The homograft valved conduit was invented …

Background Conduit longevity after right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) reconstruction is
determined by the interaction of different factors. We evaluated the relationship between …

To achieve polymer-based composites for electronic packaging with high thermal
conductivity, Al2O3 nanoplatelets were introduced into polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) matrix …

Percutaneous pulmonary valve implantation is an improved technique that is used to treat
narrowed pulmonary valves or leaky pulmonary valves in patients with congenital heart …

We demonstrate histopathology, neointimal proliferation, and neo-endothelialization in an
explanted valved expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) conduit 40 months …

OBJECTIVES Handmade trileaflet expanded polytetrafluoroethylene valved conduit
developed using the flip-over method has been tailored for pulmonary valve reconstruction …

Background: Leaflet augmentation is often required to correct an inadequate leaflet size due
to leaflet thickening, contracture and junctional fusion in patients with tricuspid valve …

OBJECTIVES Right ventricle to pulmonary artery anatomic discontinuity is common in
complex congenital heart malformations. Handsewn conduits are a practised method of …

A 6-year-old boy with pulmonary regurgitation after complete repair of congenital heart
disease underwent an alternative surgical repair for pulmonary valve replacement. Trileaflet …
