Impact of leaflet resection technique on mitral valve mobility after mitral valve repair assessed by echocardiography [PDF]

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery
Background Two surgical techniques, leaflet resection and leaflet preservation, are widely used for mitral valve repair in severe mitral regurgitation due to posterior mitral leaflet prolapse. However, which technique is superior remains unclear.

Echocardiographic description and outcomes in a heterogeneous cohort of patients undergoing mitral valve surgery with and without mitral annular disjunction: a health service evaluation

Echo Research and Practice, 2022
Background Mitral annular disjunction (MAD) is a structural abnormality characterized by the distinct separation of the mitral valve annulus/left atrium wall and myocardium. Little is known about the significance of MAD in patients requiring mitral valve

Mitral valve repair, how to make volume not matter; techniques, tendencies, and outcomes, a single center experience

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2018
Background Recent evidence has showed us that quality of mitral valve repair is strongly related to volume. However, this study shows how low-volume centers can achieve results in mitral valve repair surgery comparable to those reported by referral ...

A retrospective analysis of mitral valve pathology in the setting of bicuspid aortic valves

Echo Research and Practice, 2017
The therapeutic implications of bicuspid aortic valve associations have come under scrutiny in the transcatheter aortic valve implantation era. We evaluate the spectrum of mitral valve disease in patients with bicuspid aortic valves to determine the need
