Comparison of four aortic bioprostheses: Hancock II vs. St Jude Trifecta vs. Carpentier-Edwards Perimount Magna vs. Magna Ease—mid-term results (COMPARE SAVR study)

In the era of percutaneous aortic valve implantation, biological valves are the preferred prostheses implanted in patients undergoing surgical aortic valve replacement (sAVR). The aim was to present a real-life analysis of mid-term sAVR outcomes for the four aortic bioprostheses: the Hancock II, the Carpentier-Edwards Perimount Magna, the Carpentier-Edwards Perimount Magna Ease and the Trifecta valve.
