The Price of Redo Mitral Valve Replacement: Determinants of Major Adverse Postoperative Events

Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease
Background: Redo mitral valve replacement is a high-risk operation in which early mortality alone may underestimate postoperative burden. We evaluated whether concomitant tricuspid valve repair independently increases major adverse postoperative events ...

Mitral annulus morphologic and functional analysis using real time tridimensional echocardiography in patients submitted to unsupported mitral valve repair

Brazilian Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery, 2015
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 ...

Minimally Invasive Mitral Valve Repair and Coronary Artery Bypass Graft by a Periareolar Approach

Annals of Thoracic Surgery Short Reports
Use of coronary artery bypass for mitral valve repair in ischemic mitral regurgitation remains controversial. We present a case of a 52-year-old man with significant ischemic mitral regurgitation and coronary artery disease who underwent mitral valve ...

Percutaneous Mitral Valve Repair

Journal of Interventional Cardiology, 2007
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.

Incidence Of Atrial Fibrillation In Mitral Valve Repair Versus Replacement In Elderly Patients.

, 2010
Objective: Mitral valve repair is often preferred in elderly patients. In literature, has been described signi cant lower in-hospital stay, operative mortal- ity and cerebrovascular complications comparing mitral repair to mitral replacement. Our purpose

Transcatheter mitral valve repair with the PASCAL precision system: First case in Singapore

Severe mitral regurgitation (MR) is associated with significant mortality and morbidity when left untreated.1 In patients who are not suitable for surgery, transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) provides a minimally-invasive therapeutic option.

Promising results after percutaneous mitral valve repair

, 2011
Mitral valve regurgitation (MR) is the secondmost frequent valve disease in Europe. Untreated MR causes considerable morbidity and mortality. In the elderly, as many as half of these patients are denied surgery because of an estimated high surgical risk.

Outcomes following repair of bileaflet prolapse due to myxomatous disease of the mitral valve

The Egyptian Heart Journal, 2014
Myxomatous disease represents the most common cause of MR due to bileaflet prolapse. Mitral valve repair of mitral regurgitation (MR) due to bileaflet prolapse poses many technical challenges.

Technologies in minimally invasive treatment of severe mitral regurgitation

Cardiology Journal
Mitral valve regurgitation is the second most common valve defect in Europe among adults. Primary mitral regurgitation (MR) results from structural abnormalities of the valve apparatus (e.g., leaflet prolapse, chordae rupture), often due to myxomatous ...
