Spring Valve for Mitral Insufficiency
A.M.A. Archives of Surgery, 1955The 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

Myxomatous Transformation of the Mitral Valve Producing Mitral Insufficiency
American Journal of Diseases of Children, 1970Mitral 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.

Repair Techniques for Mitral Valve Insufficiency in Children
Seminars in Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery: Pediatric Cardiac Surgery Annual, 2018Congenital mitral valve (MV) dysplasia is a relatively rare and highly complex cardiac disease. We sought to provide a comprehensive analysis of the current surgical techniques for treating mitral valve insufficiency and the results of mitral valve repair at our institution.

MUSCULAR INSUFFICIENCY OF THE MITRAL VALVE.
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1902CLINICAL 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 ...

Pulmonary sequestration presenting as mitral valve insufficiency
Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1998Although pulmonary sequestrations commonly present with infectious complications, problems relating to high blood flow through the lesion are rarely apparent. A 4-year-old girl was referred for cardiac catheterization and evaluation for mitral valve surgery.

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 ...

Mitral Valve Insufficiency: Suspension of the Posterior Leaflet to the Mitral Annuloplasty Ring
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2008Mitral valve insufficiency in rheumatic heart disease is often due to retracted posterior chordae and posterior leaflet thickening. Several surgical repair techniques have been described, but sometimes an acceptable coaptation of the mitral leaflets can not be achieved.

Abstract Surgical correction of mitral stenosis has become an accepted procedure in selected cases. This has made it important to diagnose preoperatively in such cases the degree of competence of the mitral valve as well as the degree of stenosis. At present our tools for diagnosing significant mitral insufficiency in patients with rheumatic mitral ...
