Early results after mitral valvuloplasty for pure mitral regurgitation [PDF]
In this study we present the results of 105 consecutive patients with pure mitral regurgitation who underwent surgical treatment. In all patients mitral regurgitation was associated with mitral valve prolapse: 54 patients underwent mitral valvuloplasty ...

Abstract Wild‐type transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTRwt‐CM) is a progressive and infiltrative cardiac disorder that may cause fatal consequences if left untreated. The estimated survival time from diagnosis is approximately 3–6 years. Because of the non‐specificity of initial symptom manifestation and insufficient awareness among treating ...

Use of autologous pericardium for mitral leaflet reconstruction in a child with endocarditis
We present a case of successful repair of the mitral valve for active infective endocarditis. Mitral valve repair was performed through debridement of vegetation and abscess, resection and repair of the posterior mitral leaflet and posterior repair with ...

Balloon dilation of mitral stenosis in adult patients: Postmortem and percutaneous mitral valvuloplasty studies [PDF]
Preliminary reports have documented the utility of percutaneous balloon valvuloplasty of the mitral valve in adult patients with mitral stenosis, but the mechanism of successful valve dilation and the effect of mitral valvuloplasty on cardiac performance

A hybrid echocardiography-computational fluid dynamics framework for ventricular flow simulations [PDF]
Image-based computational fluid dynamics (CFD) has emerged as a powerful tool to study cardiovascular flows while 2D echocardiography (echo) is the most widely used non-invasive imaging modality for diagnosis of heart disease. Here, echo is combined with CFD, i.e., an echo-CFD framework, to study ventricular flows.

Mitral Valve Repair for Patients with Mitral Valve Prolapse
Prosthetic valve replacement has mainly been performed on patients with mitral regurgitation. In such cases, prosthetic valve related complications, such as thromboembolism, bleeding, prosthetic valve infection, and structural valve deterioration, are unavoidable.

Mitral valve disease is common in the United States and around the world, and if left untreated, increases cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Mitral valve repair is technically more demanding than mitral valve replacement. Mitral valve repair should

Performance evaluation on mitral valve motion feature tracking using Kanade-Lucas- Tomasi (KLT) algorithm based eigenvalue measurement [PDF]
This paper provides the explanation of the concepts of point tracking technique to be implemented in mitral valve locating in video frames. Object tracking has been used for many applications in motion-based recognition and monitoring.

Estimation of Cardiac Valve Annuli Motion with Deep Learning [PDF]
Valve annuli motion and morphology, measured from non-invasive imaging, can be used to gain a better understanding of healthy and pathological heart function. Measurements such as long-axis strain as well as peak strain rates provide markers of systolic function.
