Breakthrough Innovation: The HAART Aortic Annuloplasty Device Cleared by the FDA
Article by Adam Pick – Patient, Author & HeartValveSurgery.com Founder
“A renaissance is taking place in the world of aortic valve repair.
While patients have benefited from advances in mitral valve repair procedures (long-term durability, freedom from re-operation and normal life expectancy), reproducing those results using aortic valve repair techniques has been challenging.
