Mitral valve annuloplasty versus replacement for severe ischemic mitral regurgitation. [PDF]

open access: yesSci Rep, 2018
AbstractAlthough practice guidelines recommend surgery for patients with severe chronic ischemic mitral regurgitation (CIMR), they do not specify whether to repair or replace the mitral valve. 436 consecutive patients with severe CIMR were eligible for inclusion in the study, of which 316 (72.5%) underwent mitral valve annuloplasty (MVA) whereas 120 ...

Mitral Valve Annuloplasty [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Biomedical Engineering, 2011
Mitral valve annuloplasty is a common surgical technique used in the repair of a leaking valve by implanting an annuloplasty device. To enhance repair durability, these devices are designed to increase leaflet coaptation, while preserving the native annular shape and motion; however, the precise impact of device implantation on annular deformation ...
