Abstract
Sutur eless valves have emerged as another option for implantation of a biological valve. Several benefits of sutureless valves have been reported in the literature. However, concerns have been raised over increased incidence of para-valvular leak and need for permanent pacemaker implantation. Most of the evidence has been obtained from observational and retrospective single institutional series. The Perceval Sutureless Implant Versus Standard-Aortic Valve Replacement (PERSIST-AVR) trial is the first multicentric randomized control trial to compare sutureless valves with standard bio-prosthesis. Evidence from this trial has been critically analyzed in this review. © Indian Association of Cardiovascular-Thoracic Surgeons 2021.Entities:
