Effect of aortic pericardial valve choice on outcomes and left ventricular mass regression in patients with left ventricular hypertrophy [1]

Submitted by mferguson [2] on Mon, 2016-10-31 10:24

This single institution study evalated the effect of prosthesis choice on regression of LV mass after AVR in patients with AS.  The St. Jude Trifecta performed better than the Edwards Perimount Magna Ease in terms of LV mass regression and intermediate-term clinical outcomes such as valve gradients, freedom from readmission, and all-cause mortality.
