Division of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, Mayo Clinic Scottsdale, Arizona.

Thrombotic stenosis of a Carpentier-Edwards porcine bioprosthesis occurred in two patients within 3 months after aortic valve replacement. Both patients underwent successful replacement of the aortic prosthesis. Although previously reported, this complication of aortic porcine bioprostheses is uncommon.

D001705	Bioprosthesis	Prosthesis, usually heart valve, composed of biological material and whose durability depends upon the stability of the material after pretreatment, rather than regeneration by host cell ingrowth. Durability is achieved 1, mechanically by the interposition of a cloth, usually polytetrafluoroethylene, between the host and the graft, and 2, chemically by stabilization of the tissue by intermolecular linking, usually with glutaraldehyde, after removal of antigenic components, or the use of reconstituted and restructured biopolymers.
