Dynamic annuloplasty for mitral regurgitation [PDF]
The MiCardia DYANA annuloplasty system (MiCardia Corp, Irvine, Calif) is a nitinol-based dynamic complete ring that allows modification of the septal-lateral diameter under transesophageal echocardiography guidance in the loaded beating heart after mitral valve repair. Shape alteration is induced by radiofrequency via detachable activation wires.

Mitral annuloplasty using an intra-annular ring [PDF]
The final step in mitral valve repair is usually the implantation of an annuloplasty ring which remodels the dilated annulus and improves the long-term durability of repair.

Objective: Evidence supports replacement over repair for ischemic mitral regurgitation due to improved durability; however, the latter often involves an undersized ring annuloplasty that does not include edge-to-edge approximation.

The Influence of Mitral Annuloplasty on Left Ventricular Flow Dynamics [PDF]
BackgroundMitral valve (MV) repair using annuloplasty rings is the preferred method of treatment for MV regurgitation, but the impact of annuloplasty ring placement on left ventricular intraventricular flow has not been studied.MethodsAnnuloplasty rings ...

Mitral valve replacement with annuloplasty in a patient with infected mitral annular calcification
Key Clinical Message Extensive resection of the infected calcified annulus and the reconstruction with a pericardial patch for the debrided annulus is an effective surgical option for the treatment of infectious endocarditis in patients with mitral ...

Recurrent mitral regurgitation after annuloplasty for functional ischemic mitral regurgitation [PDF]
ObjectivesWe sought to characterize the temporal return of mitral regurgitation after annuloplasty for functional ischemic mitral regurgitation; to identify its predictors, particularly with respect to annuloplasty type; and to determine whether ...

Dependence of mechanical properties of mitral valve annuloplasty rings on annealing modes
Objective: to investigate dependence of the mechanical properties of mitral annuloplasty rings on heat annealing modes. Materials and methods. The study evaluates the nature of change in stress–strain curves under uniaxial compression of experimental ...

Saddle-Shaped Annuloplasty Improves Leaflet Coaptation in Repair for Ischemic Mitral Regurgitation [PDF]
Background. Current repair results for ischemic mitral regurgitation (IMR) with undersized annuloplasty rings are characterized by high IMR recurrence rates.
