Summary
Hancock® Bioprosthetic Valved Conduits
Hancock® Bioprosthetic Valved Conduits consist of a porcine aortic valve sutured into the center of a woven fabric conduit. The conduits are indicated for use in right heart reconstructive procedures for the repair of congenital or acquired cardiac and great vessel malformations or pathology.
Because the Hancock valved conduit does not incorporate a stent, the ratio of conduit outer diameter to inner diameter of the bioprosthesis is optimized.
The Hancock valved conduit is available in a wide range of sizes and models. Features include:
- Haynes alloy #25 annulus ring prevents annular and leaflet distortion and preserves orifice shape.
- A reinforcing ring external to the conduit prevents loss of leaflet coaptation and allows radiographic visualization.
