Echocardiographic navigation in transapical neochord mitral valve repair with significant mitral regurgitation

Вестник хирургии имени И.И. Грекова
INTRODUCTION. Significant mitral regurgitation is currently a widespread acquired valvular heart disease and is associated with a significant decrease in survival and deterioration in quality of life. One of the new, unclearly studied, minimally invasive

Alfieri stitch for temporary severe functional mitral regurgitation after aortic valve replacement

Surgical Case Reports, 2018
The outcome in functional mitral regurgitation after aortic valve replacement is unclear. A frail 82-year-old woman with severe aortic valve regurgitation and mild to moderate functional mitral valve regurgitation (NYHA functional class III) was referred

Emergency transapical mitral valve-in-valve implantation for bioprosthesis failure: transapical implantation of an Edwards Sapien-XT in a dysfunctional mitral bioprosthesis in a critical patient

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2017
Background Valve-in-Valve (VIV) Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) is now the treatment of choice in high-surgical-risk patients with failing aortic bioprosthesis. Although less performed, VIV-Transcatheter Mitral Valve Replacement (TMVR) is a

Echocardiography of the mitral valve

Journal of the Saudi Heart Association, 2010
Mitral valve disease is the second most common valvular heart disease after the aortic valve worldwide. Mitral valve has historically been a structure of interest by pioneers in echocardiography. One of the earliest applications of echocardiography was in the diagnosis of valvular heart disease, particularly mitral stenosis.

Mapping of mitral regurgitant defects by cardiovascular magnetic resonance in moderate or severe mitral regurgitation secondary to mitral valve prolapse

Journal of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance, 2008
Purpose In mitral valve prolapse, determining whether the valve is suitable for surgical repair depends on the location and mechanism of regurgitation.

Short-term outcomes of repair vs. replacement for rheumatic mitral valve disease

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine
BackgroundThe main types of surgery for rheumatic mitral valve disease are traditional percutaneous mitral balloon valvuloplasty (PMBV), mitral valve replacement (MVR) with removal of the original valve, and valve repair with preservation of the original

Traumatic Mitral Valve and Pericardial Injury

Case Reports in Critical Care, 2013
Cardiac injury after blunt trauma is common but underreported. Common cardiac trauma after the blunt chest injury (BCI) is cardiac contusion; it is very rare to have cardiac valve injury.

Hammock mitral valve: A rare cause of congenital mitral regurgitation – A case report

Indian Heart Journal, 2014
Hammock valve, also known as anomalous mitral arcade is a rare mechanism for congenital mitral insufficiency. We report a case of a two-week-old neonate who presented with features of heart failure and an apical systolic murmur.

Atypical Presentation of Typical Parachute-Like Asymmetrical Mitral Valve

Journal of the Indian Academy of Echocardiography & Cardiovascular Imaging, 2019
Parachute and parachute-like mitral valve are extremely rare congenital anomalies of mitral valve involving multiple aspects of mitral valve apparatus. It is usually seen in the younger age group. Very few cases of isolated parachute-like mitral valve in
