Mitral valve regurgitation

2015
Abstract Mitral regurgitation is increasingly prevalent. Doppler echocardiography not only detects the presence of regurgitation but also permits to understand mechanisms of regurgitation, quantification of its severity, and repercussions.

Floppy mitral valve, mitral valve prolapse, and mitral valvular regurgitation

Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2001
It is well recognized that the floppy mitral valve (FMV) complex is the central issue in the FMV, mitral valve prolapse (MVP), and mitral valvular regurgitation (MVR) story. MVP associated with the FMV results from the systolic movement of portions or segments of the FMV complex into the left atrium (LA).

A tricuspid mitral valve with severe regurgitation

Echocardiography, 2022
AbstractTricuspid mitral valve is a rare entity, distinct from isolated clefts of the mitral leaflets. Echocardiographically, it manifests as the presence of three commissures, separate papillary muscles and concordant atrioventricular or ventriculoarterial connections.

The Mitral Valve and Mitral Regurgitation

2016
An understanding of the normal anatomy, geometry and motion of the mitral valve is necessary to fully understand the pathophysiology of functional ischemic mitral regurgitation. The mitral valve apparatus is a dynamic structure with changes in its shape and geometry throughout the cardiac cycle. Six phases of the normal mitral valve motion and geometry

Reoperation in mitral valve repair for regurgitant mitral valve disease

The Japanese Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2003
Reviewing reoperative mitral valve repair, we evaluated a predictor for future reoperation by comparing degenerative and rheumatic mitral regurgitation.From June 1988 to September 2002, 159 patients with mitral valve regurgitation underwent a variety of surgical reconstruction.

Comparison of mitral valve dimensions and motion in mitral valve prolapse with severe mitral regurgitation to uncomplicated mitral valve prolapse and to mitral regurgitation without mitral valve prolapse

The American Journal of Cardiology, 1988
To determine the mitral valve abnormalities associated with hemodynamically important mitral regurgitation (MR) among patients with mitral valve prolapse (MVP), computerized 2-dimensional echocardiographic measurements of mitral leaflet and anular dimensions and motion in 26 patients with MVP and MR were compared to those in 48 subjects with ...

NONREPLACEMENT OPERATIONS FOR MITRAL VALVE REGURGITATION

Annual Review of Medicine, 1997
▪ Abstract  Mitral valve reconstruction offers patients an important alternative to the traditional method for treating severe mitral regurgitation—mitral valve replacement. Over the last 15 years, surgical techniques have evolved for treating mitral regurgitation occurring from various anatomic mechanisms—annular dilatation, abnormal leaflet motion ...

Mitral valve repair in the treatment of mitral regurgitation

Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2009
Because there is no proven effective medical therapy for mitral regurgitation (MR), mitral valve repair (MVRpr) is the treatment of choice for patients with severe primary nonrheumatic MR. A successfully performed and properly timed MVRpr may lead to a normal lifestyle and life span. The alternative to repair is mitral valve replacement. Although there

Percutaneous approaches to mitral valve regurgitation

Herz, 2011
Mitral regurgitation is a common problem associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Mitral valve surgery has been the treatment of choice for symptomatic patients with severe mitral regurgitation or asymptomatic patients with high-risk clinical features.

Mitral Valve Regurgitation and 3D Echocardiography

Future Cardiology, 2010
The mitral valve is a complex, dynamic and functional apparatus that can be altered by a wide range of disorders leading to stenosis or regurgitation. Surgical management of mitral valve disease may be difficult. Planned intervention may not always be feasible when the surgeon is faced with complex pathology that cannot be assessed fully by ...
