Flexible and Comprehensive Patient-Specific Mitral Valve Silicone Models with Chordae Tendinae Made From 3D-Printable Molds [PDF]

, 2019
Given the multitude of challenges surgeons face during mitral valve repair surgery, they should have a high confidence in handling of instruments and in the application of surgical techniques before they enter the operating room. Unfortunately, opportunities for surgical training of minimally-invasive repair are very limited, leading to a situation ...

Two‐Stage Treatment for Adult Large Patent Ductus Venosus

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This is the first report of a two‐stage treatment for an adult large PDV involving the first stage surgical angioplasty of the large Arantius' duct and second stage embolization of the formed small Arantius' duct. The two‐stage approach could avoid embolic material migration into the systemic circulation or acute portal hypertension associated with the

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

3D echocardiography in mitral valve prolapse

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
Mitral valve prolapse (MVP) is the leading cause of mitral valve surgery. Echocardiography is the principal imaging modality used to diagnose MVP, assess the mitral valve morphology and mitral annulus dynamics, and quantify mitral regurgitation.

The flail mitral valve: Echocardiographic findings by precordial and transesophageal imaging and doppler color flow mapping [PDF]

, 1991
To determine the echocardiographic and Doppler characteristics of mitral regurgitation associated with a flail mitral valve, precordial and transesophageal echocardiography with pulsed wave and Doppler color flow mapping was performed in 17 patients with

Mitral valve alternans

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 1985
An echogram showing mitral valve alternans was recorded in a patient with advanced cardiomyopathy and pulsus alternans induced by premature ventricular depolarizations. Decreased left ventricular emptying by the weak beat was followed by blunting of the subsequent mitral valve E point, a finding compatible with a significant elevation of left ...
