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.

Resolution of severe secondary mitral valve regurgitation following aortic valve replacement in infective endocarditis [PDF]
We present the case of a patient with infective endocarditis anesthetized for replacement of severely regurgitant aortic valve. Intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography revealed a new diagnosis of severe secondary mitral regurgitation.

Effect of an artificial ring on mitral valve function [PDF]
2019-05Differences of the effect of annuloplasty rings on the mitral annulus and leaflets, and differences between types of annuloplasty rings are not well known. We analyzed annular motion and leaflet movement with a rigid or flexible ring and without a

Movements of the Mitral Valve [PDF]
Cinefluorographic analysis of mitral valve motion in intact dogs provided evidence that the motility of the valve cusps is restrained by tension exerted through the chordae tendineae throughout the cardiac cycle, except for the rapid filling phase. At the onset of ventricular systole, early contraction of the papillary muscles may play an important ...

Mitral valve transcatheter edge-to-edge repair. [PDF]
Mitral regurgitation (MR) is the most prevalent valvular heart disease and, when left untreated, results in reduced quality of life, heart failure, and increased mortality.

Surgical antegrade transcatheter mitral valve implantation for symptomatic mitral valve disease and heavily calcified annulus. [PDF]
Surgical techniques for the treatment of mitral valve disease (MVD) have continuously evolved; however, anatomical details like severe annular calcification remain challenging and require sophisticated surgical strategies. Among patients with symptomatic

Abstract Cardiovascular disease is a leading complication after both liver and kidney transplantation. Factors associated with and rates of cardiovascular events (CVEs) after simultaneous liver–kidney transplant (SLKT) are unknown. This was a retrospective cohort study of adult SLKT recipients between 2002 and 2017 at six centers in six United Network ...
