Decellularized pulmonary homografts exhibit better results than bovine jugular vein conduits
A recent publication in the journal of Cell and Tissue Banking analyzed the results of a matched comparison of decellularized pulmonary homografts (DPH) and bovine jugular vein (BJV) conduits for pulmonary valve replacement in...

Welcome to ESPOIR
Beginning in January 2012, the European Union will fund the European Clinical Study for the Application of Regenerative Heart Valves (ESPOIR) trial, coordinated by the Hannover Medical School, Germany, with a grant of 5.2 Million Euros for a period of four years. The aim of ESPOIR is to transplant a heart valve, which is tolerated by the patient’s immune system, lasts a lifetime and, for children, even holds the potential to grow with the patient.
