Mitral annular size and shape in sheep with annuloplasty rings [PDF]
Background: Mitral annuloplasty is an important element of most mitral repairs, yet the effects of various types of annuloplasty rings on mitral annular dynamics are still debated.

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

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

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

The influence of annuloplasty ring geometry on mitral leaflet curvature. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The effect of mitral leaflet curvature on stress reduction is an important mechanism in optimizing valve function. We hypothesize that annuloplasty ring shape could directly influence leaflet curvature and, potentially, repair durability.
