Abstract

Several types of valves and valved conduits have been developed for right ventricular outflow tract reconstruction and yet no one has provided prolonged satisfactory hemodynamic performance. The RVOT Elan is a bioprosthetic heart valve conduit constructed from a vascular graft and a porcine stentless valve indicated specifically for right ventricular outflow tract reconstruction. The present study aimed to evaluate the early clinical and hemodynamic results following implantation of the RVOT Elan in adults and adolescents with congenitally corrected right ventricular outflow tract anomalies requiring reintervention.
