Neonatal Mitral Valve Repair in Biventricular Repair, Single Ventricle Palliation and Secondary Left Ventricular Recruitment: Indications, Techniques And Mid-Term Outcomes

open access: yesFrontiers in Surgery, 2015
OBJECTIVES Although mitral valve repair is rarely required in neonates, this population is considered to be at high risk for adverse outcomes. The aim of this study was to review the indications for surgery, mechanisms, repair techniques, and mid-term ...

Echocardiography of the mitral valve

open access: yesJournal 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.

Modeling the Mitral Valve [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
This thesis 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 attached to a ring, the free edges of which are supported by a system of chordae, which themselves are anchored to muscles inside the heart.

Mitral valve replacement in infants and children 5 years of age or younger: Evolution in practice and outcome over three decades with a focus on supra-annular prosthesis implantation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
ObjectiveSuccessful mitral valve replacement in young children is limited by the lack of small prosthetic valves. Supra-annular prosthesis implantation can facilitate mitral valve replacement with a larger prosthesis in children with a small annulus, but

The potential of mitral valve quantification in cardiovascular surgery

open access: yesAlʹmanah Kliničeskoj Mediciny, 2018
Objective: To identify specifics of mitral valve anatomy in patients with mitral insufficiency of various origin using the Mitral Valve Quantification (MVQ) technique for an optimal choice of mitral valve repair strategy. Materials and methods: The study

Degenerative mitral valve regurgitation: best practice revolution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Degenerative mitral valve disease often leads to leaflet prolapse due to chordal elongation or rupture, and resulting in mitral valve regurgitation. Guideline referral for surgical intervention centres primarily on symptoms and ventricular dysfunction ...

CNN-based fully automatic mitral valve extraction using CT images and existence probability maps [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
Accurate extraction of mitral valve shape from clinical tomographic images acquired in patients has proven useful for planning surgical and interventional mitral valve treatments. However, manual extraction of the mitral valve shape is laborious, and the existing automatic extraction methods have not been sufficiently accurate.

Interactive-Automatic Segmentation and Modelling of the Mitral Valve [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Mitral valve regurgitation is the most common valvular disease, affecting 10% of the population over 75 years old. Left untreated, patients with mitral valve regurgitation can suffer declining cardiac health until cardiac failure and death. Mitral valve repair is generally preferred over valve replacement. However, there is a direct correlation between
