In Vitro Proof of Concept of a First‐Generation Growth‐Accommodating Heart Valved Conduit for Pediatric Use

Year: 2023

Type: article

Abstract: Front Cover: Currently available heart valve prostheses have no growth potential, requiring children with heart valve diseases to endure multiple valve replacement surgeries. In article number 2300011, David Kalfa, Jeffrey W. Kysar, Richard L. Li and co-workers develop the proof of concept of a polymeric valved conduit that can be expanded by transcatheter balloon dilation to accommodate patient growth.
