Calcification in porcine xenograft valves in children.

M M Silver, J Pollock, M D Silver, W G Williams, G A Trusler.   

Abstract

Calcification developed in the degenerating collagen of the cusps of three porcine xenograft heart valves implanted in children for less than 4 years. The morphologic features and effects of this calcification are presented. Calcification of porcine xenografts seems to occur more frequently and at an earlier stage after insertion in children than in adults. Host factors, possibly related to calcium homeostasis, may promote calcification; hence, these valves may not be appropriate for use in children.
