Mitral valve thrombosis in term pregnancy: A case report and review of the literature
Objective: With this case report would like to emphasize the complexity that involves the management of pregnant women with mechanical heart valves. In that sense, an adequate interdisciplinary management of this potentially serious pathology is required

A parallel interaction potential approach coupled with the immersed boundary method for fully resolved simulations of deformable interfaces and membranes [PDF]
In this paper we show and discuss the use of a versatile interaction potential approach coupled with an immersed boundary method to simulate a variety of flows involving deformable bodies.

Transcatheter valve interventions on the mitral and tricuspid valves entail increasing complexity. Part of the knowledge that has been generated during the development of mitral devices can be transferred to the tricuspid valve (TV).

Pseudo-double orifice mitral valve or heart in heart mitral valve
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.

Transthoracic three-dimensional echocardiography for the assessment of straddling tricuspid or mitral valves [PDF]
Background The advent of 3D echocardiography has provided a technique which, potentially, could afford significant additional information over conventional cross-sectional echocardiography in the assessment of patients with straddling atrioventricular ...

Beating heart versus conventional mitral valve surgery [PDF]
The present study aimed to compare the results of beating heart technique and conventional mitral valve surgery (MVS).Three hundred and nineteen patients who underwent MVS between April 2005 and December 2006 were enrolled in the study. While 125 patients underwent beating heart MVS (group 1), the conventional approach was used for 194 patients (group ...

Mitral valve opening in the ovine heart [PDF]
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).

Tissue Heart Valve Replacement at BSMMU- Initial Experience with Two Cases
Research on prosthesis to replace diseased heart valves began almost simultaneously with mechanical valves which are durable but with inherent thromboembolic complication requiring life-long anticoagulant therapy and tissue valves which are more prone to
