Introduction:Mitral valve repair is the treatment of choice to correct mitral insufficiency, although the literature related to mitral valve annulus behavior after mitral repair without use of prosthetic rings is scarce.Objective:To analyze mitral ...

Parameters of the mitral apparatus in patients with ischemic and nonischemic dilated cardiomyopathy
The mitral valve apparatus is a complex structure consisting of several coordinating components: the annulus , two leaflets, the chordae tendineae, and the papillary muscles. Due to the intricate interplay between the mitral valve and the left ventricle,

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

The results of transcatheter mitral valve replacement
Mitral insufficiency is one of the most common valvular pathology. In almost half of the patients, standard mitral valve replacement using extracorporeal circulation cannot be used due to the high risk of complications. In recent years, for this category

Heatmap-based 2D Landmark Detection with a Varying Number of Landmarks [PDF]
Mitral valve repair is a surgery to restore the function of the mitral valve. To achieve this, a prosthetic ring is sewed onto the mitral annulus. Analyzing the sutures, which are punctured through the annulus for ring implantation, can be useful in surgical skill assessment, for quantitative surgery and for positioning a virtual prosthetic ring model ...

Mitral valve repair in severe mitral regurgitation after blunt chest trauma
Mitral valve insufficiency is a pathological condition frequently caused by etiologies such as rheumatic heart disease, ischemic cardiomyopathy, leaflets prolapse, endocarditis, rupture of a chordae tendineae, ventricular disorders or congenital heart ...

A Computational Framework for Atrioventricular Valve Modeling using Open-Source Software [PDF]
Atrioventricular valve regurgitation is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with acquired and congenital cardiac valve disease. Image-derived computational modeling of atrioventricular valves has advanced substantially over the last decade and holds particular promise to inform valve repair in small and heterogeneous populations ...
