Methods One-hundred-and-twenty patients with isolated aortic valve stenosis were included in this prospective randomized randomised trial and allocated in three age-groups to receive either pulmonary autograft PA n 20 or mechanical prosthesis MP Edwards Mira n 20 in group 1 age 55 years either stentless bioprosthesis CE Prima Plus n 20 or MP Edwards Mira n 20 in group 2 age 55-75 years and either stentless CE Prima Plus n 20 or stented bioprosthesis CE Perimount n 20 in group 3 age 75 . Clinical outcomes and hemodynamic performance were evaluated at discharge six months and one year. Results In group 1 patients with PA had significantly lower mean gradients than the MP vs. mmHg p with comparable left ventricular mass regression LVMR . Morbidity included 1 stroke in the PA population and 1 gastrointestinal bleeding in the MP subgroup. In group 2 mean gradients did not differ significantly between both populations vs. mmHg p . The rate of LVMR and EF were comparable at 12 months each group with one mortality. Morbidity included 1 stroke and 1 gastrointestinal bleeding in the stentless and 3 bleeding complications in the MP group. In group 3 mean gradients did not differ significantly vs mmHg p . Postoperative EF and LVMR were comparable. There were 3 deaths in the stented group and no mortality in the stentless group. Morbidity included 1 endocarditis and 1 stroke in the stentless compared to 1 endocarditis 1 .
