New article: Mechanical and Geometric Characterization of a Novel 2-Ply Vacuum-Pressed Biological Scaffold Patch Design for Posterior Mitral Valve Reconstruction
We just published the first study evaluating mitral valve repair with reconstruction of the posterior mitral valve leaflet using a patch made of small intestinal submucosal extracellular matrix.
The project is a part of the PhD thesis of Johannes Jedrzejczyk, MD. The article Mechanical and Geometric Characterization of a Novel 2-Ply Vacuum-Pressed Biological Scaffold Patch Design for Posterior Mitral Valve Reconstruction is published in Journal of Cardiovascular Translational Research.
