Evaluation of pliable bioresorbable, elastomeric aortic valve prostheses in sheep during 12 months post implantation

Abstract Pliable microfibrous, bioresorbable elastomeric heart valve prostheses are investigated in search of sustainable heart valve replacement. These cell-free implants recruit cells and trigger tissue formation on the valves in situ. Our aim is to investigate the behaviour of these heart valve p...
