Zusammenfassung:	In one embodiment, a method of manufacturing a prosthetic heart valve can comprise providing a piece of pericardial tissue comprising a fibrous parietal layer and a serous parietal layer. The method can further comprise reducing the thickness of the piece of pericardial tissue by removing a portion of the serous parietal layer, the fibrous parietal layer defining a first surface of the piece of pericardial tissue and the serous parietal layer defining a second surface of the piece of pericardial tissue. The method can further comprise positioning the pericardial tissue around an outer surface of a frame of the prosthetic heart valve and securing it thereto such that the first surface is facing away from the frame and the second surface is facing towards the frame.
