Aortic Valve

November 13, 2025
The authors report seven-year outcomes of the PARTNER 3 trial comparing transfemoral transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) with surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) in 1,000 low-risk patients with severe, symptomatic aortic stenosis.

The EACTS recently released an expert consensus statement on the Ross procedure in adult patients, highlighting the renewed focus in this area due to increasing evidence of excellent long-term outcomes. These outcomes include restoration of life expectancy and improved valve-related outcomes.
October 9, 2025
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVR) has transformed treatment for high-risk aortic stenosis patients, but its recent use in low-risk younger populations and those with bicuspid aortic valves (BAV) raises concerns about valve durability and increased mortality and stroke rates.
October 2, 2025
Sanad and colleagues report promising early- to mid-term outcomes of aortic valve neocuspidization (AVNeo), commonly known as the Ozaki procedure, in patients with rheumatic heart disease.  
October 2, 2025
The authors measured inlet and outlet orifice diameters and flow channel height of eight surgical bioprosthetic aortic stented valve models using an optical method.

This study reported favorable early outcomes in 11 intermediate- and high-risk patients who underwent a modified Bio-Bentall procedure with a rapid deployment valve between January 2018 and December 2022.  
September 18, 2025
The authors report the first Dutch experience with Personalized External Aortic Root Support (PEARS) in patients at risk of aortic dissection due to connective tissue disorders or bicuspid aortic valve. Between 2018 and 2023, 90 patients underwent surgery in Amsterdam and Leiden.
August 28, 2025
Cleveland Clinic surgeons have successfully performed the world’s first transcervical robotic aortic valve replacement (AVR) procedures in four patients, utilizing a small incision in the neck for minimally invasive access.
August 28, 2025
This study on patients undergoing open valve surgeries revelated that Cor-Knot fasteners reduced surgery times compared to manual tying in aortic valve replacements and valve surgeries with coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).
August 28, 2025
In this retrospective study, the authors analyzed outcomes in 245 patients with left-sided infective endocarditis (IE) and noninfected cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) who underwent cardiac surgery, using data from the CAMPAIGN Registry, which included 4,917 patients operated on between 1994 and 2018.
