Purpose:

  • To review the current status of percutaneous aortic and pulmonary valve implantation.
  • To compare percutaneous procedures with conventional surgical valve replacement.
  • To highlight the need for further research into novel valve replacement techniques.

Summary:

  • Percutaneous procedures for aortic and pulmonary valve implantation are feasible but currently involve rare, selected cases.
  • This emergent technology is in the early stages of development.

Related Experiment Videos

  • Prospective studies are essential to evaluate the clinical efficacy of percutaneous valve procedures.
