TAVR in bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) represents a challenging scenario. Valve sizing and positioning are the most important determinants of procedural success. In BAV the maximal prosthesis-anatomy interference occurs at the supra-annular level. Supra-annular prosthesis implantation may improve valve sealing and hemodynamic result. In this case series, we propose a new site for prosthesis implantation, guided CT scan supra-annular sizing for BAV undergoing TAVR.

Application of low-intensity anticoagulation after On-X mechanical aortic valve replacement.
J Cardiothorac Surg
January 2025
Cardiac Surgery Center, Sichuan Academy of Medical Sciences & Sichuan Provincial People's Hospital, Affiliated Hospital of University of Electronic Science and Technology, Chengdu, Sichuan Province, 610072, China.
Objective: To explore the safety and efficacy of low-intensity anticoagulation in patients after On-X mechanical aortic valve replacement.
Methods: A total of 104 patients undergoing aortic valve replacement in Cardiac Surgery Department of Sichuan Provincial People's Hospital from December 2018 to December 2021 were randomly divided into low-intensity anticoagulant (INR:1.5-2.
Background: Valve-related haemolysis is a known complication following prosthetic valve surgery. Haemolysis after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has been reported in some studies, all of which were non-critical. Data related to haemolysis associated with new-generation balloon-expandable valve (BEV) are scarce.

Background: Aortic stenosis (AS) is a complex condition with various hemodynamic subtypes, each with distinct clinical profiles and outcomes. This study aimed to assess the characteristics and outcomes of different AS phenotypes based on flow and gradient patterns.
Methods: In this retrospective cohort study, we included 930 patients who underwent transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) for severe symptomatic AS at Mayo Clinic sites from 2012-2017.
Fate of Semilunar Valves From Discarded Hearts at the Time of Pediatric Heart Retransplantation.
Pediatr Transplant
February 2025
The Heart Institute, Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center, Cincinnati, Ohio, USA.
Background: Partial heart transplantation (PHT) is a novel procedure for children in need of a growing valve replacement option. One challenge is identifying suitable donor valves. Semilunar heart valves from patients receiving a retransplant may be a source, however their functionality and growth potential especially at the time of retransplant are unknown.

Cardiothoracic surgery, CHU de Rennes, Rennes, France.
Background: The long-term comparative results between porcine and pericardial bioprostheses for surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) is debated. Scarce information exists concerning direct comparative evaluation among contemporary devices. We compared late and very late results in a single center series (N=3,983 cases).
