Single center experience with surgically implanted Melody and Sapien 3 valves in the mitral position in young children
Melody and Sapien valves contribute to the prognosis of patients as it shortens the operation time, is easily applicable, and provides opportunities such as postoperative redilation. The successful results we obtained show that both valves can be used reliably and effectively and can be an alternative to conventional methods.
