Anatomy of the mitral valve: understanding the mitral valve complex in mitral regurgitation [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Echocardiography, 2010
Imaging the mitral valve requires an understanding of the normal anatomy and how this complex structure is altered by disease states. Mitral regurgitation is increasingly prevalent. Despite the fall in rheumatic disease, it is the second most common valvular lesion seen in adults in Europe.

One-Year Outcomes of Mitral Valve-in-Valve Using the SAPIEN 3 Transcatheter Heart Valve.

open access: yesJAMA cardiology, 2020
Importance Bioprosthetic mitral valves are implanted with increasing frequency but inevitably degenerate, leading to heart failure. Reoperation is associated with high morbidity and mortality.

Transcatheter Mitral‐Valve Repair in Patients with Heart Failure

open access: yesNew England Journal of Medicine, 2018
BACKGROUND Among patients with heart failure who have mitral regurgitation due to left ventricular dysfunction, the prognosis is poor. Transcatheter mitral‐valve repair may improve their clinical outcomes.

Transcatheter Mitral Valve Replacement After Surgical Repair or Replacement

open access: yesCirculation, 2020
Supplemental Digital Content is available in the text. Background: Mitral valve-in-valve (ViV) and valve-in-ring (ViR) are alternatives to surgical reoperation in patients with recurrent mitral valve failure after previous surgical valve repair or ...

Modeling the mitral valve

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical Methods in Biomedical Engineering, 2019
AbstractThis work is concerned with modeling and simulation of the mitral valve, one of the four valves in the human heart. The valve is composed of leaflets, the free edges of which are supported by a system of chordae, which themselves are anchored to the papillary muscles inside the left ventricle.
