Review of bioprosthetic structural valve deterioration: Patient or valve?
Trevor D TnayDaniel ShellAdrienne LuiPublished in: Journal of cardiac surgery (2022)
Increasing rates of obesity and metabolic syndrome pose a significant risk to the longevity of bioprosthetic valves. Additionally, externally mounted valves have proven to sacrifice durability for superior haemodynamics. Bioprosthetic SVD continues to be a multifactorial issue that will require various patient- and valve-related factors to be addressed.
