Abstract
Fresh and cryopreservation technologies did not significantly influence the basic properties of AVA leaflets; however, massive endothelial decellularization was present in both groups. Therefore, no endocardial cell activity nor signs of inflammation were observed. These results were independent of donors' age and sex, processing technology, and time of storage of cryopreserved AVAs.
