Rerepair for Mitral Insufficiency

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery
Mitral valve repair provides superior outcomes to replacement for primary mitral regurgitation. Whether this is true after previous repair is unknown. This study presents the results of a strategy of rerepair for failed mitral valve repair. The study examined patients who were brought to the operating room for an intended mitral valve rerepair.Study ...

Repair Techniques for Mitral Valve Insufficiency in Children

Pediatric Cardiac Surgery Annual, 2018
Congenital mitral valve (MV) dysplasia is a relatively rare and highly complex cardiac disease. We sought to provide a comprehensive analysis of the current surgical techniques for treating mitral valve insufficiency and the results of mitral valve ...

The dynamics of mitral insufficiency

American Heart Journal, 1954
Abstract By using specially constructed models, the hydrodynamic factors affecting the degree of mitral regurgitation were analyzed. Forward flow into the aorta is enhanced by increases in atrial pressure, ventricular filling, viscosity of the blood, celerity of ventricular contraction, and by lateral pressure effects on the regurgitant orifice ...

Anatomy of mitral insufficiency

Progress in Cardiovascular Diseases, 1962
Summary The causes of mitral insufficiency are primarily considered from an anatomic point of view. Mitral insufficiency may result from anatomic alteration of the papillary muscles, the chordae tendineae, the valve leaflets and/or the commissures.

The diagnosis of mitral insufficiency

American Heart Journal, 1955
Abstract When the clinical findings and the left-heart catheterization suggest a dominating mitral insufficiency we can perform an angiocardiography by injection of contrast medium through the needle into the left atrium in order to visualize the mitral valves.

Mitral valve repair for mitral insufficiency

European Heart Journal, 1991
Degenerative mitral valve disease has become the major cause of mitral regurgitation in North America; it is incumbent on surgeons to know repair techniques and to document their results. Fortunately, improvements in myocardial protection have been concurrent with the evolution of mitral valve repair in our country.

Mitral valve reconstruction for mitral insufficiency

Progress in Cardiovascular Diseases, 1997
Mitral valve reconstruction is now the procedure of choice for many mitral regurgitant lesions. Early enthusiasm and technical advances in plastic reconstruction of the mitral valve were overshadowed by the development of prosthetic and bioprosthetic valves. With long-term follow-up studies came the realization that the complication rates of prosthetic

Silent mitral insufficiency

American Heart Journal, 1965
Abstract Four cases of marked mitral insufficiency without systolic murmur are presented. Absence of the systolic murmur was proved not only by auscultation, but also by phonocardiography. In all cases the diagnosis of mitral insufficiency was missed clinically and mitral stenosis was diagnosed.

Tricuspid insufficiency masquerading as mitral insufficiency in patients with severe mitral stenosis

The American Journal of Cardiology, 1967
Abstract Eight patients with tight mitral stenosis and associated tricuspid insufficiency are presented. Initially, significant mitral insufficiency was suspected because of a loud apical systolic murmur, which after careful re-evaluation was proved to be of tricuspid origin transmitted to the apex.

Mitral valve repair for ischemic mitral insufficiency

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1991
Over a 5-year period, 1,292 patients had operation on their native mitral valves. Ischemia was the cause of mitral insufficiency in 84 patients (6.5%). Sixty-five patients (77.4%) had mitral valve repair. Mean age was 66 +/- 10 years; 35 patients (53.8%) were women.
