Clinical Application of Bioprosthesis in China: Current Status and Future

China is one of the countries which have a high incidence of heart valvular disease, but the use of biological valve is limited in China before because the majority of patients are young patients suffering from rheumatic heart disease. The biological valve has a good application prospect in China. On the one hand, the new generation of biological valves have been significantly improved in the aspects of anti-calcification treatment, anti-metabolism, material quality control, valve frame mechanics design, and leaflet sewing technology, and the application effect is improved; on the other hand, surgeons should adapt to the new concept changes, and correctly understand and rationally apply biological valves, master valve repair, atrial fibrillation ablation and other techniques, combined with interventional, minimally invasive techniques, etc., according to the specific conditions of the disease and choose the surgery type to ensure the patients' long-term life quality.
