Transvalvular Pressure Gradients for different Methods of Mitral Valve Repair only Neochordoplasty achieves native Valve Gradients [PDF]
OBJECTIVES: Many surgical and interventional methods are available to restore patency for patients with degenerative severe mitral valve regurgitation. Leaflet resection and neochordoplasty, which both include ring annuloplasty, are the most frequently ...

Recurrence of Mitral Valve Regurgitation After Mitral Valve Repair [PDF]
To the Editor: Flameng and colleagues1 are to be congratulated on an excellent observational study of the long-term course after mitral valve repair. This type of data is badly needed. The report could have been improved, however, with less emphasis on statistics and more on the actual data.

Mitral valve repair for myxomatous degeneration and prolapse of the mitral valve
From 1984 to 1988, 129 mitral valve reconstructions were done for primary pure mitral regurgitation. Sixty-two (48%) were done for myxomatous degeneration and prolapse of the mitral valve. Anterior leaflet resection was performed in seven patients, posterior leaflet resection in 46, anteroposterior resection in four; five patients received only a ring ...

Transesophageal echocardiography as predictor of mitral valve repair
BACKGROUND AND AIM OF THE STUDY: Mitral valve repair has recently emerged as the treatment of choice in patients presenting with insufficiency due to valve prolapse. The study aims were to evaluate: (i) the clinical presentation in a consecutive series

Mitral valve replacement using a mitral homograft
Mitral valve dysfunction is not always amenable to repair, and may necessitate valve replacement. An alternative to standard mechanical and biological prostheses, is the use of homografts.

Percutaneous Mitral Valve Repair for Mitral Regurgitation
Mitral regurgitation (MR) associated with, ischemic, and degenerative (prolapse) disease, contributes to left ventricular (LV) dysfunction due to remodeling, and LV dilation, resulting in worsening of MR. Mitral valve (MV) surgical repair has provided improvement in survival, LV function and symptoms, especially when performed early.

It is uncertain whether mitral valve replacement is really inferior to mitral valve repair for the treatment of chronic ischemic mitral regurgitation.

Mitral valve repair after failed MitraClip therapy
Although the long-term durability of transcatheter procedures has yet to be established, their emergence as an option for mitral valve repair seems to have provided the surgical community with another tool in the toolbox for treatment of mitral valve ...
