TriRec - Trileaflet Reconstruction of the Aortic Valve With Autologous Pericardium (TriRec)

July 16, 2018 updated by: Deutsches Herzzentrum Muenchen

TriRec - Trileaflet Reconstruction of the Aortic Valve

Reconstruction of the aortic valve using the tri-leaflet repair technique is non-inferior with regard to effective orifice area (EOA) to surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) with a biological prosthesis (St. Jude Trifecta GT) as gold- standard.
