Abstract
Although some anecdotal experience concerning the use of modern
sutureless aortic valve bioprosthesis for the treatment of endocarditis
has been reported, no data is available on the mid-and long-term
results. We describe a case of a patient successfully treated with
Perceval sutureless bioprosthesis for aortic valve endocarditis and his
seven years follow-up.
