Key result
The Perceval S sutureless valve provides an alternative for aortic stenosis, but requires technical modifications to mitigate its main complication of increased permanent pacemaker requirement.
Why the study?
Sutureless Perceval S valve bioprostheses carry an increased rate of postoperative permanent pacemaker implantation compared to conventional aortic valve replacement.
How can the increased rate of postoperative permanent pacemaker implantation associated with the Perceval S sutureless aortic valve be mitigated?

Technical modifications may lower pacemaker rates with Perceval S; leaves open need for prospective validation before practice change.
How can the increased rate of postoperative permanent pacemaker implantation associated with the Perceval S sutureless aortic valve be mitigated?
Technical modifications during the deployment of the Perceval S sutureless aortic valve can help prevent the common complication of postoperative permanent pacemaker requirement.
A 2022 study conducted a review in Aortic valve disease. Perceval S sutureless aortic valve vs. Conventional aortic valve replacement was evaluated. The Perceval S sutureless valve provides an alternative for aortic stenosis, but requires technical modifications to mitigate its main complication of increased permanent pacemaker requirement.
