A Remnant Mitral Subvalvular Apparatus Mimicking Aortic Valve Vegetation after Mitral Valve Replacement [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Preservation of the subvalvular apparatus has the merits of postoperative outcomes during mitral valve replacement for mitral regurgitation. We performed mitral valve replacement with anterior and posterior leaflet chordal preservation in a 65-year-old ...

Flexible and Comprehensive Patient-Specific Mitral Valve Silicone Models with Chordae Tendinae Made From 3D-Printable Molds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Given the multitude of challenges surgeons face during mitral valve repair surgery, they should have a high confidence in handling of instruments and in the application of surgical techniques before they enter the operating room. Unfortunately, opportunities for surgical training of minimally-invasive repair are very limited, leading to a situation ...

Phenotypic Expansion of Knobloch Syndrome Type 2 in an Individual With a De Novo PAK2 Variant

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT P21‐activated kinase 2 (PAK2) is a serine/threonine kinase essential for a variety of cellular processes including signal transduction, cellular survival, proliferation, and migration. A recent report proposed monoallelic PAK2 variants cause Knobloch syndrome type 2 (KNO2)—a developmental disorder primarily characterized by ocular anomalies ...

Transcatheter Edge-to-Edge Repair of the Mitral Valve in Four Dogs: Preliminary Results Regarding Efficacy and Safety

open access: yesAnimals
Mitral valve disease is a common heart disease in dogs. The aim of this study was to describe the cases of dogs that underwent mitral valve repair via a V-clamp device and to provide long-term follow-up data on cardiac function after mitral valve repair.

Heart valve operations associated with reduced risk of death from mitral valve disease but other operations associated with increased risk of death: a national population-based case–control study

open access: yesJournal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2019
Background Mitral valve disease is the most common heart valve disease worldwide. Heart valve operation is the predominant treatment strategy for heart valve disease.

Nanopore Sequencing Solves an Elusive Case of Sotos Syndrome

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sotos syndrome is a rare genetic disorder characterized by distinctive facial features, including a broad and prominent forehead, dolichocephaly, and learning disabilities ranging from mild to severe intellectual impairment. Affected individuals often show overgrowth in height and head circumference over two standard deviations.

Emergency transapical mitral valve-in-valve implantation for bioprosthesis failure: transapical implantation of an Edwards Sapien-XT in a dysfunctional mitral bioprosthesis in a critical patient

open access: yesJournal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2017
Background Valve-in-Valve (VIV) Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) is now the treatment of choice in high-surgical-risk patients with failing aortic bioprosthesis. Although less performed, VIV-Transcatheter Mitral Valve Replacement (TMVR) is a

3D echocardiography in mitral valve prolapse

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
Mitral valve prolapse (MVP) is the leading cause of mitral valve surgery. Echocardiography is the principal imaging modality used to diagnose MVP, assess the mitral valve morphology and mitral annulus dynamics, and quantify mitral regurgitation.

Mitral valve alternans

open access: yesJournal of the American College of Cardiology, 1985
An echogram showing mitral valve alternans was recorded in a patient with advanced cardiomyopathy and pulsus alternans induced by premature ventricular depolarizations. Decreased left ventricular emptying by the weak beat was followed by blunting of the subsequent mitral valve E point, a finding compatible with a significant elevation of left ...
