Supports conduit selection in congenital RVOT reconstruction; extends observational durability data but leaves open randomized comparisons.
Observational (n=218)
Yes
The Carpentier Edwards porcine valved conduit provides durable intermediate-term outcomes for RVOT reconstruction in congenital heart disease, with larger sizes showing no gradient progression.
Schiralli et al. (2011) conducted an observational in Congenital heart disease requiring right ventricular outflow tract reconstruction (n=218). Carpentier Edwards porcine valved conduit was evaluated on Freedom from reoperation. The Carpentier Edwards porcine valved conduit for right ventricular outflow tract reconstruction demonstrated excellent longevity, with 70.3% freedom from reoperation at 8.2 years.
