Since 1990, over 1.2 million bioprosthetic valves were implanted for aortic stenosis. Given the risk of structural valve deterioration, the need to redo AVR will likely rise. Recently, SAPIEN valve-in-valve (ViV) has been advocated. We evaluated the in vitro hydrodynamic performance of the Edwards SAPIEN+cloth trans-catheter heart valve (THV) implanted within the Carpentier-Edwards Perimount (CEP) valve.
