Prediction of individual prosthesis size for valve-sparing aortic root reconstruction based on geometric features.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Valve-sparing aortic root reconstruction is an up- and-coming approach for patients suffering from aortic valve insufficiencies which promises to significantly reduce complications. However, the success of the treatment strongly depends on the challe...

Mitral Valve Surgery: Current Minimally Invasive and Transcatheter Options.

Methodist DeBakey cardiovascular journal
The mitral valve is a highly complex structure, the competency and function of which relies on the harmonious action of its component parts. Minimally invasive cardiac surgery (MICS) for mitral valve repair or replacement (MVR/r) has been performed s...

Factor V Leiden and Cardiopulmonary Bypass.

The journal of extra-corporeal technology
We present a case of a patient with factor V Leiden with an antithrombin III activity of 67% who received a successful aortic valve replacement supported by cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). A safe level of anticoagulation was achieved by monitoring acti...
