Mitral valve repair for functional mitral regurgitation: is annuloplasty alone enough?

open access: yes, 2010
Purpose of review To outline indications and contraindications to mitral valve surgery in the clinical context of dilated cardiomyopathy and the surgical principles to follow in performing an undersized annuloplasty.

SURGICAL TRICUSPID VALVE REPAIR: RING ANNULOPLASTY AND DE VEGA TECHNIQUE. IMMEDIATE POSTOPERATIVE RESULTS COMPARISON

open access: yesКлінічна та профілактична медицина
Introduction. Tricuspid regurgitation is associated with progressive right heart failure and increased mortality. The two principal repair techniques are ring annuloplasty (rigid prosthetic ring implantation) and the De Vega suture annuloplasty.

Biodegradable annuloplasty rings: evolution, characteristics and surgical technique [PDF]

open access: yes
Annulus remodeling and stabilization with a ring have been demonstrated to be a mandatory step in mitral and tricuspid valve repair to ensure effective leaflet coaptation and improve long-term results.

Autologous pericardial soft-ring annuloplasty may offer improved long-term control of rheumatic functional tricuspid regurgitation: a propensity-matched cohort study

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine
BackgroundTo compare the long-term efficacy of autologous pericardial soft-ring annuloplasty (P-TVP) versus prosthetic ring annuloplasty (A-TVP) for functional tricuspid regurgitation (FTR) secondary to rheumatic heart disease (RHD).MethodsA total of 251

Saddle-shape annuloplasty increases mitral leaflet coaptation after repair for flail posterior leaflet.

open access: yes, 2011
BACKGROUND: The primary goal of surgical mitral repair is the reestablishment of normal leaflet coaptation. Surgical techniques that maintain or restore leaflet geometry promote leaflet coaptation. Recent 3-dimensional (3D) echocardiographic studies have

The role of intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography in tricuspid valve annuloplasty – 15 years follow-up (1988-2003)

open access: yesArchives of Medical Science, 2005
Objectives: Tricuspid valve regurgitation is usually secondary and results from the changes in geometry of tricuspid annulus, dilatation or overload of right atrium and right ventricle.
