Mitral annuloplasty

Multimedia Manual of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 2009
Annuloplasty is an essential component of surgical mitral valve repair to stabilize the repair and improve leaflet coaptation, decrease the stress on the leaflets and sutures, and increase the durability of the reconstructive procedure. Different annuloplasty methods and devices are available.

Percutaneous Tricuspid Annuloplasty

Interventional Cardiology Clinics, 2018
The tricuspid valve was ignored for a long time. The prevalence of severe tricuspid regurgitation is not negligible, however, and is associated with poor prognosis. In cases of primary tricuspid regurgitation, surgical options are limited by a high risk of mortality and morbidity.

Mitral valve annuloplasty

The Multimedia Manual of Cardio-thoracic Surgery, 2018
Mitral valve prosthetic ring annuloplasty represents a key milestone in the history of mitral valve repair, delivering restoration of annular shape and size. Increased leaflet coaptation, together with significant reduction in stress on sutures, has ensured predictability and immediate stability for valve repair, both of which were lacking with ...

Percutaneous mitral annuloplasty

Coronary Artery Disease, 2009
Mitral annuloplasty is the most common surgical procedure performed for mitral valve regurgitation, whether performed alone or as part of a more complex repair. A less invasive percutaneous approach to mitral annuloplasty associated with lesser morbidity might offer advantages over a surgical procedure in some patients, even if less efficacious.

Intradiscal Electrothermal Annuloplasty

American Journal of Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation, 2005
Low back pain is a common problem, and although the majority of cases of low back pain resolve, a subset of patients will continue to have intractable pain despite appropriate conservative treatments. Intradiscal electrothermal annuloplasty is a minimally invasive spinal procedure that has been proposed to treat provocation discography-proven internal ...

Technic of tricuspid annuloplasty

The American Journal of Surgery, 1967
Abstract Significant tricuspid insufficiency accompanying lesions of the mitral and aortic valves produces serious effects if they are not repaired at the same time as the left sided lesions. The technic of tricuspid annuloplasty is described, a procedure which if properly performed is most useful and successful.

Saddle-shaped mitral valve annuloplasty rings improve leaflet coaptation geometry [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2011
ObjectivesThe mitral valve annulus naturally conforms to a saddle shape in systole. This configuration is believed to put the leaflets into a lower-energy equilibrium with the annulus and subvalvular apparatus.

An Effective Adjunct to Tricuspid Annuloplasty

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1984
A simple and effective adjunct to annuloplasty is presented for use in patients in whom dilatation of the annulus may not be sufficient to convert the tricuspid valve into a bicuspid valve. Several interrupted sutures are placed on the leaflets adjacent to the commissural zone between the anterior and posterior leaflets prior to exclusion of the ...

Results of De Vega Annuloplasty and Tricuspid Ring Annuloplasty Using by Mitral Annuloplasty Ring in the Treatment of Functional Tricuspid Insufficiency

Turkiye Klinikleri Journal of Medical Sciences, 2012
Objective: This study aimed to compare the medium-term results of patients with functional tricuspid insufficiency (FTI) treated with Tricuspid Ring Annuloplasty (TRA) and De Vega Annuloplasty (DVA). Material and Methods: With the approval of the Ethics Committee, 92 patients who were treated for FTI in our clinic between 2001-2008 were included in the
