MITRAL VALVE REPLACEMENT IN CHILDREN
SUMMARY The cases of 2 children with severe mitral insufficiency have been presented with emphasis on the pathologic physiology and surgical treatment. The Starr-Edwards prosthesis was used to totally replace the diseased mitral valve in each instance.

Transcatheter mitral valve replacement: latest advances and future directions.
Mitral regurgitation remains the most common form of valve disease worldwide and given an aging population with a significant proportion of secondary mitral regurgitation, a transcatheter approach to mitral valve replacement has become a major goal of ...

Residual mitral regurgitation after repair for posterior leaflet prolapse- Importance of preoperative anterior leaflet tethering [PDF]
Background Carpentier's techniques for degenerative posterior mitral leaflet prolapse have been established with excellent long‐term results reported. However, residual mitral regurgitation ( MR

Alfieri stitch for temporary severe functional mitral regurgitation after aortic valve replacement
The outcome in functional mitral regurgitation after aortic valve replacement is unclear. A frail 82-year-old woman with severe aortic valve regurgitation and mild to moderate functional mitral valve regurgitation (NYHA functional class III) was referred

Left atrial anomalous muscular band as incidental finding during video-assisted mitral surgery [PDF]
Congenital fibromuscular bands have been described inleft ventricle or right atrium and have been diagnosed by echocardiography and CT scan. The first report of anomalous band in the left atrium was described in 1897 by Rollestone (1).

Phaeochromocytoma and mitral valve replacement [PDF]
A phaeochromocytoma was diagnosed following a mitral valve replacement and coronary artery bypass in a patient with progressive mitral regurgitation. Despite a previous adverse reaction to anaesthesia, this was not predicted perhaps due to his cardiac disease. Fever, leucocytosis and confusion were also prominent features.

Late thrombosis of a mitral bioprosthetic valve with associated massive left atrial thrombus
An 84-year-old man presented 5 years after bioprosthetic mitral valve replacement with three months of worsening dyspnea on exertion. A new mitral stenosis murmur was noted on physical examination, and an electrocardiogram revealed newly recognized ...
