Xeltis AG: Spontaneous Natural Tissue Growth For Heart Valve Replacement

Rather than relying on an animal or cadaver implant to repair severe congenital heart malformations, Xeltis AG has developed a synthetic and biodegradable replacement pulmonary valve, designed to stimulate and guide the body’s natural healing response. The company’s technology, which has opened up an entirely new therapeutic category called endogenous tissue growth, is designed to provide a single intervention that can last for a lifetime.
