Aortic valve replacement has evolved recently with the development of the sutureless bioprosthesis.

Abstract

Aortic valve replacement has evolved recently with the development of the sutureless bioprosthesis. One such valve is the Perceval bioprosthesis, which is built by mounting leaflets of bovine pericardium to a thin stent; this approach has the potential to provide an excellent fluid dynamic performance. We undertook an in vitro study to compare the hydrodynamic performance of the sutureless bioprosthesis with two standard pericardial stented bioprostheses (Crown and Magna).
