Should high risk patients with concomitant severe aortic stenosis and mitral valve disease undergo double valve surgery in the TAVR era?

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2017
Background Significant mitral regurgitation in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is associated with increased mortality. The aim of this study is to determine if surgical correction of both aortic and mitral valves in high

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

Sleep‐disordered breathing in valvular heart disease: A Modifiable comorbidity

Sleep Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Sleep‐disordered breathing (SDB) is highly prevalent among patients with valvular heart disease (VHD) and is independently associated with adverse clinical outcomes. The two major phenotypes—obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and central sleep apnea (CSA)—exhibit distinct distributions across VHD subtypes. CSA predominates in severe aortic stenosis,

A Patient With Severe Left Ventricular Dysfunction Undergoing Transcatheter Mitral Valve-In-Ring Using a Novel Renato Valve: A Case Report

The Heart Surgery Forum
Background: Mitral valve repair is a widely used operation to treat mitral regurgitation. However, the annuloplasty ring used may fail, causing mitral regurgitation to recur several years after the operation. Transcatheter mitral valve-

Fetal aortic morphometry by echocardiography: reproducibility study using stringent criteria and standardized nomenclature

Ultrasound in Obstetrics &Gynecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To establish and assess the reproducibility of standardized echocardiographic nomenclature and the protocol for comprehensive evaluation of fetal aortic morphology. Methods This was a prospective cohort study of fetuses with a normal three‐vessel branching pattern of the aortic arch, evaluated from 18–40 weeks' gestation at a single ...
