Transcatheter mitral valve repair - transcatheter mitral valve annuloplasty
EuroIntervention, 2014Percutaneous mitral valve therapies have emerged as an alternative option for high-risk patients with mitral regurgitation. Multiple technologies and diversified approaches are today under clinical study or in development and they can be categorised based on the anatomically and pathophysiologically addressed target.

The most common valvular disorder in the United States was identified only 20 years ago. Characterized by nonexertional chest pain, dyspnea, fatigue, and psychiatric disturbances, it can often be diagnosed by stethoscope. In some cases, various cardiographic and visualization techniques may be necessary.

Journal of American College Health Association, 1980
Abstract Mitral valve prolapse is the most common heart disease seen in college and university health services. It underlies most arrhythmia and many chest pain complaints. Auscultatory findings vary; only 60% have the click, only 48% have the murmur, and in half of those with murmur, it was heard better at the upper-left sternal border than at the ...

Modern repair techniques allow reconstruction rather than replacement of the mitral valve (MV) in the majority of patients requiring operation. Such patients are now older and more likely to have nonrheumatic MV disease than those treated in former years.

Current Cardiology Reports, 2019
This review describes numerous pathologic entities that cause structural abnormalities of the mitral valve. Different pathologic entities involve different components of the so-called mitral apparatus: atrial wall, annulus, leaflets, chordae, papillary muscles, and/or left ventricular free wall.

Mitral valve prolapse is a very common condition. It occurs in 4-5% of the population. It may be idiopathic or associated with a number of other conditions. Myxomatous degeneration is the underlying mechanism of mitral valve prolapse. Most patients with mitral valve prolapse have no symptoms. When symptoms do occur, palpitations, chest pain and dyspnea

AbstractFew disorders ever provoked more interest and controversy than mitral valve prolapse (MVP). Past echocardiographic over‐diagnosis led to it becoming a whipping boy for otherwise unexplained chest pain, palpitation, arrhythmias and emboli. Surgical centres reported a high incidence of endocarditis and severe regurgitation.Most investigators who ...

Mitral stenosis is an obstruction of blood flow from the left atrium to the left ventricle. It is generally caused by rheumatic heart disease [1, 2]. Other causes of mitral stenosis are: severe calcification of the valve leaflets, congenital defects of the mitral valve, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), tumors, left atrial thrombi, vegetations due to
