Degeneration of xenografts or homografts is a major cause for reoperation in young patients after pulmonary valve replacement. We present the early results of fresh decellularized pulmonary homografts (DPH) implantation compared with glutaraldehyde-fixed bovine jugular vein (BJV) and cryopreserved homografts (CH).
