Percutaneous Implantation of CoreValve Aortic Prostheses in Patients With a Mechanical Mitral Valve
Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 11/05/09
Bruschi G et al. – The authors report the experience with percutaneous aortic valve implantation in 4 patients with severe aortic stenosis, previously operated on for mitral valve replacement with a mechanical prosthesis. No deformation of the nitinol tubing of the prostheses (ie, neither distortion nor malfunction of the mechanical valve in the mitral position) occurred in any of the patients. All patients are alive and asymptomatic at a mean follow–up of 171 days.
