Spring Valve for Mitral Insufficiency

A.M.A. Archives of Surgery, 1955
The surgical attack upon acquired heart disease has progressed at a rapid pace since the advent of mitral commissurotomy in 1949. 1 The outstanding valvular defect, which still is unsolved from a surgical standpoint, is mitral insufficiency. Bailey 2 found at operation that 21.7% of patients operated upon for mitral stenosis had a significant amount of

Early experience with mitral valve reconstruction for mitral insufficiency

The American Journal of Surgery, 1991
Mitral valve repair for mitral regurgitation has been reported to have more favorable early and late results than mitral valve replacement. From July 1985 through July 1990, 63 patients have undergone valve repair at Good Samaritan Hospital. Twenty-two men and 41 women whose ages ranged from 34 to 81 years (mean 67.9 years) were treated.

Myxomatous Transformation of the Mitral Valve Producing Mitral Insufficiency

American Journal of Diseases of Children, 1970
Mitral regurgitation in children is most commonly associated with chronic rheumatic heart disease, and a number of congenital cardiac lesions may produce a similar lesion. Not uncommonly, a diagnostic problem arises in the older child with classical findings of mitral regurgitation without a history of rheumatic fever.

Results of mitral valve reconstruction in mitral valve insufficiency.

The Journal of cardiovascular surgery, 1995
In the last three years forty mitral valve reconstruction (MR) procedures were performed in case of mitral insufficiency (MI). In three cases, anatomical changes made reconstruction impossible for us. One patient had to be re-operated because of unsatisfactory valve function. There was no operative mortality.

[Repair in rheumatic mitral valve insufficiency].

Giornale italiano di cardiologia, 1997
Emerging evidence indicates that etiology plays an essential role in the results of mitral valve repair. In this study, we examined the long-term performance of this procedure in 61 consecutive patients with pure rheumatic mitral insufficiency.Patient ages ranged from 4 to 74 years (mean: 51.7 +/- 16).

Mitral Valve Replacement in “Complex” Mitral Insufficiency: An Unusual Case of an Isolated Hammock Mitral Valve

Journal of Cardiac Surgery, 2009
The hammock mitral valve is a rare congenital abnormality resulting in mitral regurgitation or stenosis, with incidences ranging from 0% to 12% in pediatric surgical series. It is difficult to correct this condition by reconstructive techniques. We describe here an alone hammock valve without any cardiac malformation in a five-year-old patient who ...

Functional Mitral Valve Insufficiency

2013
The term “ischemic mitral valve insufficiency” often refers to post-infarction mitral valve insufficiency following localized deformation of the ventricular chamber and the consequent distortion of the mitral tensor apparatus.

MUSCULAR INSUFFICIENCY OF THE MITRAL VALVE.

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1902
CLINICAL HISTORY OF THE ACUTE FORM. The muscular mitral insufficiencies may present themselves in two forms: first, acute; second, chronic. The acute cases present themselves during the course of those diseases which affect the myocardium. These are diphtheria, scarlet fever, typhoid, acute articular rheumatism, and in general, the acute infections ...
