“Valve-On-Valve” — an alternative method of surgical treatment of tissue valve dysfunctions by N. V. Rogulina, I. K. Khalivopulo

“…Every year, the frequency of use of biological prostheses for treatment of valvular heart disease increases.The implantation of a biological prosthesis allows avoiding lifelong anticoagulant therapy, but at the same time it may require further replacement due to the dysfunction development.Traditional reoperation is associated with a certain risk of trauma to various structures and cardiac chambers during explantation of non-functioning valve.Transcatheter replacement of the prosthesis (“valve-in-valve”) is not always realizable due to lack of routes for the delivery system and small diameter of the initial valve.…”
