Effect of Concurrent Mitral Valve Surgery for Secondary Mitral Regurgitation Upon Mortality After Aortic Valve Replacement or Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery [PDF]
OBJECTIVES: It is uncertain whether concurrent mitral valve repair or replacement for moderate or greater secondary mitral regurgitation at the time of coronary artery bypass graft or aortic valve replacement surgery improves long-term survival. METHODS:

Surgical treatment of tricuspid regurgitation after mitral valve surgery: a retrospective study in China [PDF]
Background Functional tricuspid regurgitation (TR) occurs in patients with rheumatic mitral valve disease even after mitral valve surgery. The aim of this study was to analyze surgical results of TR after previous successful mitral valve surgery. Methods

57. Aortic valve replacement with sutureless valve and mitral valve repair in patient with infected aortic homograft [PDF]
The approach of implanting aortic sutureless valve inside the calcific homograft is suitable in redo surgery especially if associated with mitral valve surgery. Aortic valve replacement in patients who have undergone previous aortic root replacement with

Redo Mitral Valve Replacement After Valve-in-Valve Transcatheter Mitral Valve Replacement [PDF]
The rising preference for percutaneous mitral valve-in-valve replacement (ViV TMVR) over redo surgical mitral valve replacement (MVR) is primarily due to its reduced bleeding risk. This report details a bloodless redo MVR performed for mitral stenosis post-ViV TMVR.

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.
