Transcatheter Aortic and Mitral Valve Implantations for Failed Bioprosthetic Heart Valves
08/25/2011
Abstract: Background. Restoring degenerated bioprosthetic valves by transcatheter valve implantation may obviate the need for redo surgery in carefully selected patients. We present our initial experience with valve-in-valve (VIV) procedures...
