Background
Recent reports suggest an increased rate of early structural valve degeneration (SVD) in the Trifecta bioprosthesis (Abbott Cardiovascular). We sought to compare the intermediate‐term outcomes of the Magna (Edwards Life Sciences) and Trifecta valves.
Methods
All surgical aortic valve replacements (SAVRs) with Trifecta or Magna/Magna Ease bioprostheses at an academic medical center were...

In this case report, we describe endovascular repair of multiple outflow graft defects with external hemorrhage in a complex patient using overlapping stent grafts. This approach successfully stopped the outflow graft hemorrhage and temporized the patient for subsequent cardiac transplantation.
