We present a case of early degeneration of a bioprosthesis in the mitral position three years after implantation. Valve explantation revealed complete neo-intima formation and complete fusion of one commissure due to papillary muscle and chordae tendineae embedding in the bioprosthetic leaflets.

Abstract

We present a case of early degeneration of a bioprosthesis in the mitral position three years after implantation. Valve explantation revealed complete neo-intima formation and complete fusion of one commissure due to papillary muscle and chordae tendineae embedding in the bioprosthetic leaflets.
