Open-heart transseptal transcatheter mitral valve implantation with mitral annular calcification [PDF]

Journal of Cardiology Cases, 2020
Mitral valve replacement (MVR) using a prosthesis of transcatheter aortic valve implantation for mitral annular calcification (MAC) is an alternative procedure which is very different from a conventional MVR and is safe. Acceptable results including mortality and morbidity have been reported.

From Clinic to Computation: Multiscale Bioengineering Strategies for Durable Biological Aortic Valve Replacements

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Bioprosthetic aortic valves have revolutionized the treatment of aortic stenosis, but their durability is limited by structural valve deterioration (SVD). This review focuses on the pericardial tissue at the heart of these valves, examining how its mechanical properties and calcification drive fatigue and failure.

Combined Aortic and Mitral Valve Stenosis in Mucopolysaccharidosis Syndrome Type I-S: A Report of a Rare Case

Journal of Tehran University Heart Center, 2021
Mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) syndrome is an inherited metabolic disorder. In more than half of the patients with MPS syndrome, heart valve involvement is reported; however, combined aortic and mitral valve stenosis in MPS syndrome type I-S is very rare ...

Ultrasound‐Triggered Nanobubbles for Endothelial‐Targeted Drug Delivery in the Detection and Treatment of Doxorubicin‐Induced Cardiotoxicity

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
The DA/VTP‐NBs selectively recognized cardiac ECs damaged by DIC and achieved cell‐level targeted imaging. Then US‐triggered controlled release successfully enabled the release of DAPA within the DA/VTP‐NBs at the site of injury. This precise on‐demand drug release approach amplifies a series of localized therapeutic effects through the mtDNA‐mediated ...

Combined mitral valve repair and heart transplantation

Clinical Case Reports, 2018
Key Clinical MessageIn times of donor organ shortage, organs with extended allocation criteria, for example, valve pathologies, have to be taken into consideration for transplantation. The donor pool can be extended to hearts with mitral valve insufficiency.
