Surgery for rheumatic mitral valve disease in sub-saharan African countries: why valve repair is still the best surgical option

The Pan African Medical Journal, 2016
Rheumatic valve disease, a consequence of acute rheumatic fever, remains endemic in developing countries in the sub-Saharan region where it is the leading cause of heart failure and cardiovascular death, involving predominantly a young population.

Transcatheter Mitral Valve Replacement in Patients With Previous Aortic Valve Replacement

Circulation. Cardiovascular Interventions, 2018
Background: Transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) may mature to become a therapeutic option for high-risk patients with severe mitral regurgitation (MR), particularly in patients at high or prohibitive surgical risk.

Culture Positive Brucella Endocarditis in a Case of Baloon Mitral Valvotomy [PDF]

, 2011
Brucella endocarditis is a rare condition which occurs as a focal complication in chronic brucellosis cases. We report a rare brucella endocarditis case in a RVHD patient. A 26 years old male was admitted with fever on off for almost one year.

When surgery is not an option: case report of transcatheter valve-in-valve replacement for mitral valve dysfunction

The Egyptian Heart Journal
Background Heart valve diseases affect over 100 million people globally, with mitral regurgitation being the most common in developed countries. Bioprosthetic heart valves, frequently used for replacement, typically last 10–15 years before degeneration ...

Management of tricuspid regurgitation in patients undergoing mitral valve replacement for rheumatic mitral valve diseases [PDF]

, 2012
BACKGROUND: In mitral valve diseases associated with long standing pulmonary hypertension,Tricuspid annulus dilates and fails to shorten during systole leading to Tricuspid regurgitation.Tricuspid regurgitation contributes to both the morbidity and ...

Employment of artificial intelligence for an unbiased evaluation regarding the recovery of right ventricular function after mitral valve transcatheter edge‐to‐edge repair

European Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Impact of mitral transcatheter edge‐to‐edge repair (M‐TEER) on left and right heart function. IQR, interquartile range; LA, left atrial; RVEF, right ventricular ejection fraction; sPAP, systolic pulmonary artery pressure; TAPSE, tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion.

Prediction of Turbulent Shear Stresses through Dysfunctional Bileaflet Mechanical Heart Valves using Computational Fluid Dynamics

, 2018
There are more than 300,000 heart valves implanted annually worldwide with about 50% of them being mechanical valves. The heart valve replacement is often a common treatment for severe valvular disease.
