Transcatheter mitral valve replacement
Journal of Cardiology, 2021Transcatheter mitral valve (MV) repair, specifically the edge-to-edge leaflet repair, is a less invasive treatment of symptomatic mitral regurgitation (MR) in patients with high or prohibitive surgical risk. In cases with severe leaflet calcification, small mitral orifice area, and/or extremely wide regurgitation across the entire MV commissure ...

Mitral valve repair versus mitral valve replacement
Zeitschrift für Kardiologie, 2001Over the past 40 years mitral valve surgery has changed dramatically. After initial enthusiasm with the introduction of valve prostheses in the 1960s, a renewed interest in repair techniques began in the 1970s with the introduction of annuloplasty rings. These repair techniques revealed that the integrity of the subvalvular apparatus plays an important

Technique of Mitral Valve Replacement
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1980A technique for mitral valve replacement is described that provides adequate exposure for excision of the valve and secure suturing of the annulus, even in patients with a small left atrium. The technique has been used in more than 100 patients and has resulted in only a minimal amount of perivalvular leak.

Mitral valve replacement with homograft
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1998The technique for replacement of the mitral valve with a mitral valve homograft is described. Principles include side-by-side approximation of the papillary muscles using multiple stitches of fine monofilament suture, direct attachment of the annulus of the mitral homograft to the annulus of the patient, and support of the repair by remodeling ...

Allograft Mitral Valve Replacement
Seminars in Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery: Pediatric Cardiac Surgery Annual, 1999Allograft valves have been used in cardiac valve replacement for over 40 years. Early failures of allograft mitral valve replacement (AMVR) were attributed to inadequate allograft preservation or unsuccessful implantation techniques. Due to an improved understanding of mitral valve function gained from experience in mitral valve reconstruction ...

The etiology of mitral valve disease is generally categorized as degenerative, ischemic, rheumatic, or infectious. Globally, rheumatic heart disease (RHD) remains a major cause of mitral valve disease. Mitral valve replacement may be performed for both mitral valve stenosis and mitral valve regurgitation due to structural or functional changes in the ...

Improved mitral valve replacement
European Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 1990We describe a simple, reproducible technique of achieving more normal left ventricular function after mitral valve replacement. Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) sutures are used as chordae tendineae to restore the integrity between the mechanical valve and papillary muscles and thus the left ventricular wall.

Transaortic Mitral Valve Replacement
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2012Transaortic replacement of the mitral valve at the time of aortic valve or root replacement is a rarely used technique that offers many possible advantages in the setting of multivalve replacement. Reports in the literature are few and dated. The purpose of this brief communication is to describe technical and procedural details specific to mitral ...
