Edwards Inspiris Resilia® valve for mitral replacement in an infant after mechanical valve failure
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 03 December 2018
Abstract
We present the surgical implantation of the Edwards Inspiris Resilia® aortic valve in mitral position for mechanical mitral valve failure in a severely ill infant after valve replacement because of anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery. The biological valve was chosen because the child could not receive oral anticoagulation and was for several months on heparin infusion. The procedure was safely performed with good haemodynamic result.
