Percutaneous pulmonary valve replacement: autologous tissue-engineered valved stents.

abstract：AIM:Clinical use of amiodarone is associated with occasional development of torsade de pointes (TdP). However, preclinical models have failed to demonstrate the proarrhythmic potential of amiodarone. The objective of this study was to reveal and explain the pro- and anti-arrhythmic effects of acute exposure to amiodaro...
