Pulmonary transcatheter heart valve bioprostheses are implantable devices designed to replace or repair damaged pulmonary heart valves. These valves are typically made from animal tissue and are delivered to the heart through a catheter, offering a less invasive alternative to traditional open-heart surgery.
These devices often feature a metal frame that can be expanded using a balloon or through self-expanding mechanisms to secure the valve in place. The category may also include the specialized delivery systems, such as catheters and introducers, required to perform the implantation procedure.
