Surgical intervention of mitral valve aneurysm: a case report [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cardiothoracic Surgery
Background Mitral valve aneurysm is a rare structural abnormality characterized by a saccular protrusion of the mitral valve leaflet. The diagnosis of a mitral valve aneurysm can be challenging, especially when echocardiography fails to show a clear ...

Complex mitral valve anatomy and open issues in transcatheter mitral valve replacement

open access: yesSurgery in Practice and Science, 2023
Higher and prohibitive mitral valve disease surgical scenarios are preferred cases for transcatheter mitral valve replacement as they offer unrelenting mitral valve regurgitation reduction.

Mitral valve and mitral valve disease [PDF]

open access: yesBJA Education, 2017
### Key points The mitral valve separates the left atrium from the left ventricle (LV) and, as such, is an integral part of the high-pressure systemic circulation. Therefore, any pathology of the valve can have critical physiological effects that the anaesthetist must be aware of. Anaesthesia alters the way in which the heart, valve, and circulation

Effect of concurrent mitral valve surgery for secondary mitral regurgitation upon mortality after aortic valve replacement or coronary artery bypass surgery

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
ObjectivesIt is uncertain whether concurrent mitral valve repair or replacement for moderate or greater secondary mitral regurgitation at the time of coronary artery bypass graft or aortic valve replacement surgery improves long-term survival ...

Study of Mitral Valve Insufficiency: A Systemic Review [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Medical and Life Science, 2023
The Rationale Behind the Evaluation Mitral valvular disease, which includes mitral stenosis and mitral regurgitation, is the focus of this review. The structure of the valve is our starting point for this discussion.According to recent studies, 3D ...

Mitral valve repair [PDF]

open access: yesF1000Research, 2016
Mitral regurgitation (MR) is the most common valvular heart disease in the Western world. The MR can be either organic (mainly degenerative in Western countries) or functional (secondary to left ventricular remodeling in the context of ischemic or idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy).

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

open access: yesEcho 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

open access: yesJournal 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 ...
