Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Aortic disease is the most common valvular heart disease. Aortic valve implantation has become a therapy for patients with low- and intermediate-risk severe aortic stenosis. The wide range of diseases that can be treated using aortic valve implantation include insufficiency, subvalvular stenosis, endocarditis, and bicuspid degeneration.
Aortic valve diseases have experienced a revolution in the past decade with the introduction of valve implantation therapies providing a mini-invasive, safe, and efficient treatment for the majority of patients. Due to the increasing rate of valve implantation use, data on outcomes and variables impacting outcomes continue to be of interest. Recently research has focused on permanent pacemaker implantation rates, cases where the valve has become narrowed (aortic stenosis) or the valve is leaky (aortic regurgitation), aortic valve-in-valve procedures, and a new generation of trans-catheter heart valve devices.
This Special Issue aims to collect original articles, reviews, and other contributions on the current state and future developments of aortic valve implantation, focused on these and other related topics, aiming at bringing the reader up to date with the advances in aortic valve implantation.
