Mitral valve interventions in heart failure [PDF]
ESC Heart Failure, 2018 AbstractSecondary mitral regurgitation (MR) results from left ventricular dilatation and dysfunction. Quantification of secondary MR is challenging because of the underlying myocardial disease. Clinical and echocardiographic evaluation requires a multi‐parametric approach.

Mitral valve repair in heart failure [PDF]
European Journal of Heart Failure, 2000 AbstractMitral regurgitation (MR) is a frequent complication of end‐stage heart failure. Historically, these patients were either managed medically or with mitral valve replacement, both associated with poor outcomes. Mitral valve repair via an ‘undersized’ annuloplasty repair is safe and effectively corrects MR in heart‐failure patients.

Mitral valve opening in the ovine heart [PDF]
American Journal of Physiology-Heart and Circulatory Physiology, 1998 To study the three-dimensional size, shape, and motion of the mitral leaflets and annulus, we surgically attached radiopaque markers to sites on the mitral annulus and leaflets in seven sheep. After 8 days of recovery, the animals were sedated, and three-dimensional marker positions were measured by computer analysis of biplane videofluorograms (60/s).

Multidisciplinary decision-making in mitral valve disease: the mitral valve heart team [PDF]
Netherlands Heart Journal, 2019 Although decision-making using the heart-team approach is apparently intuitive and has a class I recommendation in most recent guidelines, supportive data is still lacking. The current study aims to demonstrate the individualised clinical pathway for mitral valve disease patients and to evaluate the outcome of all patients referred to the dedicated ...

Pseudo-double orifice mitral valve or heart in heart mitral valve
Journal of Indian College of Cardiology, 2016 Abstract Pseudo-double orifice mitral valve is a condition characterised by double orifice appearance of mitral valve and it occurs as a result of acquired heart disease. This article describes echocardiographic appearance of this condition and helps in differentiating from double orifice mitral valve.

Transapical Beating Heart Mitral Valve Repair [PDF]
Circulation: Cardiovascular Interventions, 2010 Repair of mitral valve (MV) leaflet prolapse using chordal replacement is an established procedure in open heart surgery for the treatment of mitral regurgitation (MR). The technique has proven high reproducibility and excellent long-term outcomes for posterior leaflet prolaspe, with freedom from valve-related reoperation of >95%.1, 2 Striving toward a

Mitral valve replacement on a beating heart
Indian Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2004 We report the case of a patient who needed mitral valve replacement but was at a high risk of myocardial injury with the conventional technique (cardioplegic arrest on cardiopulmonary bypass). Valve replacement was carried out on a beating heart on cardiopulmonary bypass by perfusing the heart continuously with oxygenated noncardioplegic normothermic ...

Study of mitral valve in human cadaveric hearts
Heart Views, 2012 The mitral valve is a complex structure that is altered by disease states. The classical image of the mitral valve is a bicuspid valve with two leaflets and two papillary muscles. The reason for the present study is to study the morphology and morphometry of the mitral valve.This study was carried out on 116 human cadaveric hearts.

Mitral Valve Adaptation in Ischemic Heart Disease∗
Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2016 Literature is the art of discovering something extraordinary about ordinary people, and saying with ordinary words something extraordinary.—Boris Pasternak [(1)][1] The same can be said about scientific insights.

Beating-heart mitral valve chordal replacement [PDF]
2011 Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, 2011 Replacing open-heart surgical procedures with beating-heart interventions substantially decreases the trauma and risk of a procedure. One of the most challenging procedures to perform on the beating heart is valve repair. To address this need, this paper proposes a tool for replacing mitral valve chordae to correct regurgitation. The chordae is secured
