AVNeo is a surgical procedure for treating aortic valve disease.

During the procedure
🔸 The damaged heart valve is removed,
🔸 New valve parts are made from tissues of the patient’s pericardium,
🔸 The newly reconstructed valve is sewn into the native aortic valve position.

This procedure restores and regulates the blood flow from the heart to other parts of the body.

The main advantage of the AVNeo is that it reduces the risk of complications and rejections, leading to a more natural and durable valve function.

📍 We are happy to share that Dr Loh Yee Jim has performed the first AVNeo procedure in Singapore on 13 April 2023 under the proctorship of Dr Sivakumar Sivalingam.

Congratulations to Dr Loh Yee Jim and the team from National Heart Centre, successfully performed the First Av Neo procedure on a 30 year old young man in Singapore!

The post op pressure gradient is only 3mmHg, compared to Biological valve that usually has a pressure gradient of above 10mmHg;
Thus likely to have a longer durability! ☺️

We are proud to be able to be part of this event, providing necessary trainings, and lead to this success. We look forward on more opportunities to work together, with the same aim : A better health and lifestyle for patients!

Nonetheless, as always, our heartfelt gratitude to our proctor, Dr Sivakumar that sacrifices his time and made much effort to train and support the case! It will not be as smooth without him being around, guiding.

Long waited AV Neo Procedure workshop.
AV Neo Procedure is a procedure invented by Prof Ozaki to reconstruct aortic valve.
This procedure uses autologous pericardium to reconstruct the valve thus patients do not need to consume Wafarin life long. To be able to have quality of life is important.
