- Abstract
The article discusses the impact of aortic valve replacement with the St. Jude Medical Trifecta bioprosthesis in octogenarian patients. The study analyzed the survival of these patients compared to the life expectancy of the general population, as well as the need for reoperation and short-term hemodynamic data. The results showed that aortic valve replacement surgery was effective in this patient cohort, with a survival rate close to that expected for the Portuguese population. Additionally, the analyzed prosthesis demonstrated a good hemodynamic profile.
