Devices for Mitral Valve Repair

Journal of Cardiovascular Translational Research, 2014
The natural history of severe mitral regurgitation (MR) is unfavorable, leading to left ventricular failure, atrial fibrillation, stroke, and death. Many patients affected by severe regurgitation (MR) do not currently undergo surgery, mainly due to the perceived risk of the procedure (old age, impaired left ventricular function, and comorbidities ...

Percutaneous Mitral Valve Repair [PDF]

Current Cardiology Reports, 2013
Nonsurgical treatment of clinically important mitral regurgitation (MR) has evolved tremendously over the past decade. Recent studies of percutaneous mitral valve repair procedures have shown that less invasive procedures are safe and can be effective in selected patients. MitraClip has been studied most extensively.

New England Journal of Medicine
BACKGROUND Current treatment recommendations for patients with heart failure and secondary mitral regurgitation include transcatheter edge-to-edge repair and mitral-valve surgery.

Mitral Valve Repair for Double-orifice Mitral Valve

Heart, Lung and Circulation, 2014
We present an eight year-old girl who required an operation for moderate mitral insufficiency associated with partial atrioventricular septal defect. Echocardiography disclosed an ostium primum atrial septal defect and double-orifice mitral valve with moderate mitral regurgitation secondary to a cleft in the anterior leaflet and prolapse of the ...

Mitral valve repair into the 1990s

European Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 1992
Mitral valvuloplasty has become an increasingly accepted alternative to valve replacement, although the strong learning curve attached to the procedure has deterred many surgeons from adopting it. Since it was developed in the late 1960s by Carpentier, comprehensive valvuloplasty has undergone modifications and additions dictated by the experiences ...

Repair of Mitral-Valve Prolapse

New England Journal of Medicine, 2010
To the Editor: In the review article by Verma and Mesana (Dec. 3 issue),1 mitral-valve prolapse is defined as the displacement of some portion of one or both mitral-valve leaflets into the left atrium during systole. This term was introduced in 1966 by Criley et al.2 and has been frequently used as a synonym for “billowing mitral leaflet,” which was ...

Percutaneous Mitral Valve Repair

Seminars in Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2006
Surgical mitral valve repair is the procedure of choice to treat mitral regurgitation of all etiologies. Whereas annuloplasty is the cornerstone of mitral valve repair, a variety of other surgical techniques are utilized to correct dysfunction of the leaflets and subvalvular apparatus; in most cases, surgical repair entails application of multiple ...

Mitral valve repair in dogs

Journal of Veterinary Cardiology, 2012
Prognosis for dogs with severe mitral regurgitation is poor with medical therapy alone. Open surgical mitral valve repair consisting of circumferential mitral annuloplasty and artificial chordal replacement confers durability and improved long-term clinical outcome without a need for long-term antithrombotic therapies.

Percutaneous edge‐to‐edge mitral valve repair may rescue select patients in cardiogenic shock: Findings from a single center case series

Catheterization and cardiovascular interventions, 2019
Patients with severe mitral regurgitation (MR) and cardiogenic shock are typically too high risk for immediate surgery; however, percutaneous edge‐to‐edge mitral valve repair (pMVr) may be reasonable in select patients.
