Valve sutures

Sutures for Valve Replacement 

Valves Sutures Historical Background

First marketed in 1951, our sutures for valve replacement or repair procedures are the result of a long collaboration with Professor Alain Carpentier, French cardiac surgeon, known as the “Modern mitral valve repair father“, by the President of the AATS – American Association for Thoracic Surgery.
