Key result
Perceval sutureless AVR yields ~71% eight-year survival with stable gradients and no structural deterioration.
Why the study?
Long-term clinical and echocardiographic outcomes of Perceval sutureless aortic valve implantation, particularly survival, valve-related events, and hemodynamic performance, required evaluation during extended follow-up.
Does Perceval sutureless aortic valve replacement provide favorable long-term survival and hemodynamic outcomes in patients aged 70-85 years?

Does Perceval sutureless aortic valve replacement provide favorable long-term survival and hemodynamic outcomes in patients aged 70-85 years?
Perceval sutureless aortic valve replacement demonstrates favorable long-term survival and sustained hemodynamic performance over an 8-year period in older patients.
Khalil et al. (2026) conducted a cohort in Severe aortic stenosis (n=150). Perceval sutureless aortic valve implantation was evaluated on Overall survival at 8 years. Perceval sutureless aortic valve implantation demonstrated an estimated overall survival of 71.3% at 8 years, with stable transvalvular gradients and no structural valve deterioration.
