Transcatheter Mitral Valve Repair for Degenerative Mitral Regurgitation.
Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), 2023Importance There are limited data on the outcomes of transcatheter edge-to-edge mitral valve repair for degenerative mitral regurgitation (MR) in a real-world setting.

Mitral-Valve Repair for Mitral-Valve Prolapse
New England Journal of Medicine, 2009A 55-year-old man presents with a holosystolic murmur of increasing intensity and is given a diagnosis of mitral-valve prolapse with severe mitral regurgitation. He is asymptomatic but has mildly depressed left ventricular function and mild left ventricular enlargement. Mitral-valve repair is recommended.

Mitral valve repair versus mitral valve replacement
Zeitschrift für Kardiologie, 2001Over the past 40 years mitral valve surgery has changed dramatically. After initial enthusiasm with the introduction of valve prostheses in the 1960s, a renewed interest in repair techniques began in the 1970s with the introduction of annuloplasty rings. These repair techniques revealed that the integrity of the subvalvular apparatus plays an important

Mitral Valve Reconstruction and Mitral Valve Replacement for Ischemic Mitral Insufficiency
Journal of Cardiac Surgery, 1997Patients with ischemic mitral incompetence have a high operative risk whether the valve is repaired or replaced. The advantage of repair over replacement is unclear in this group of patients.Between April 1986 and December 1994, 232 patients underwent surgery for ischemic mitral valve insufficiency; mitral valve replacement was performed in 98 of them.

Annual Review of Medicine, 1987
Mitral valve prolapse continues to arouse considerable interest because of its worldwide prevalence, lack of unanimity in diagnostic criteria, and association with such potentially serious complications as angina-like chest pain, cardiac arrhythmias, sudden death, progressive mitral regurgitation, cerebral embolism, and infective endocarditis.

Primary Care: Clinics in Office Practice, 1979
Mitral valve prolapse, diagnosed by auscultation of typical midsystolic clicks and late systolic murmurs or by echocardiographic demonstration of definite systolic protrusion of the mitral leaflets into the left atrium, is the commonest human abnormality of heart valves, affecting roughly 4 per cent of the population.

Heart, 2009
A 74-year-old man with severe aortic valve stenosis associated with ascending aortic aneurysm, moderate mitral valve regurgitation (type I according to Carpentier’s classification), and three-vessel disease underwent combined aortic valve and ascending aortic replacement, mitral valve pericardial band anuloplasty and triple coronary artery bypass ...

Mitral valve prosthetic ring annuloplasty represents a key milestone in the history of mitral valve repair, delivering restoration of annular shape and size. Increased leaflet coaptation, together with significant reduction in stress on sutures, has ensured predictability and immediate stability for valve repair, both of which were lacking with ...

Floppy mitral valve, mitral valve prolapse, and mitral valvular regurgitation
Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2001It is well recognized that the floppy mitral valve (FMV) complex is the central issue in the FMV, mitral valve prolapse (MVP), and mitral valvular regurgitation (MVR) story. MVP associated with the FMV results from the systolic movement of portions or segments of the FMV complex into the left atrium (LA).

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
