Design and analysis of tissue heart valve

Commercially available prosthetic aortic valves are seldom used in paediatric patients due to the small size of the aorta as well as the inability of the valve to grow with the patient.The aim of this study is to design a valve replacement for paediatric patients which will allow the valve to expand...
