Perceval sutureless bioprosthesis versus Trifecta sutured bioprosthesis for aortic valve replacement: immediate results of the study.

Introduction: The Perceval sutureless biological prosthesis for aortic valve replacement has been introduced with the rationale for shortening surgical, extracorporeal circulation and aortic cross-clamping times, in order to reduce postoperative complications.

Aim: To evaluate early hemodynamic performance and immediate outcomes of implantation of the Perceval sutureless bioprosthesis in comparison with the St. Jude Trifecta sutured bioprosthesis for aortic valve replacement (Perfecta study).

The role of the female gender on mid-term outcome after coronary artery bypass grafting: a retrospective study.

Background: Data on female gender differences on clinical prognosis after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) are still controversial. We evaluated retrospectively the impact of women patients in comparison with men undergoing CABG on mid-term outcome.

Methods: Between December 2014 and March 2022, 1,044 consecutive patients (162 females, 15.

Early-Staged Carotid Artery Stenting Prior to Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting: Analysis of the Early and Mid-Term Results in Comparison with a Consecutive Cohort of Isolated Coronary Artery Surgery Patients.

Aim: The aim of the present study was to analyze retrospectively the results of patients who underwent early-staged, i.e., within 24-48 h, carotid artery stenting (e-s CAS) before coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).
