Resolution of severe secondary mitral valve regurgitation following aortic valve replacement in infective endocarditis [PDF]
We present the case of a patient with infective endocarditis anesthetized for replacement of severely regurgitant aortic valve. Intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography revealed a new diagnosis of severe secondary mitral regurgitation.

Mitral Anterior Leaflet Perforation Due to Jet Flow in Aortic Valve Insufficiency [PDF]
Mitral valve disease is one of the most common pathologies of heart valve diseases. Mitral regurgitation may develop due to pathologies in the valve apparatus (primary regurgitation) or due to pathologies related to the atrium and/or ventricle (secondary

Midterm Outcomes of Pediatric Mitral Valvuloplasty for Moderate to Severe Mitral Valve Regurgitation and Associated Risk Factors for Postoperative Deterioration [PDF]
Background: Mitral valvuloplasty is considered the best treatment for pediatric mitral valve regurgitation. The objective of this analysis was to identify risk factors for postoperative mitral valve regurgitation progression and evaluate valvuloplasty ...

Transvalvular mitral regurgitation following mitral valve replacement a diagnostic dilemma
After mitral valve replacement with a prosthetic valve, the valve should be competent and there should not be any residual prosthetic valve regurgitation. Transvalvular residual prosthetic valve regurgitation are difficult to diagnose and quantify.
