Is Mitral Valve Repair Safe Procedure in Elderly Patients? [PDF]

, 2010
The aim of this randomized, prospective, study was to evaluate postoperative hospital mortality and morbidity after mitral valve repair by comparing two surgical techniques for resolving mitral valve insufficiency in elderly patients. In comparison were:

Curved Bistable Origami‐Inspired Flexible Transcatheter Mitral Valve Clamping

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A lightweight bistable curved origami dilator combines reversible deformation and high stability, offering a promising solution for minimally invasive mitral valve repair. Abstract Curved origami exhibits remarkable potential for minimally invasive medical applications owing to its unique geometric programmability and mechanical tunability. Building on

Noradrenergic and cholinergic innervation of the normal human heart and changes associated with cardiomyopathy

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Autonomic nerves are crucial in cardiac function and pathology. However, data on the distribution of cholinergic and noradrenergic nerves in normal and pathologic human hearts is lacking. Nonfailing donor hearts were pressure‐perfusion fixed, imaged, and dissected. Left ventricular cardiomyopathy samples were also obtained.

Emergency transapical mitral valve-in-valve implantation for bioprosthesis failure: transapical implantation of an Edwards Sapien-XT in a dysfunctional mitral bioprosthesis in a critical patient

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2017
Background Valve-in-Valve (VIV) Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) is now the treatment of choice in high-surgical-risk patients with failing aortic bioprosthesis. Although less performed, VIV-Transcatheter Mitral Valve Replacement (TMVR) is a

A Meta‐Analysis and Simplified Nomenclature for Diagonal Coronary Artery and Ramus Intermedius Across Adult and Pediatric Hearts

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Anatomical descriptions of left‐sided oblique coronary branches remain inconsistent, hindering imaging interpretation and surgical planning. To quantify the prevalence, branching patterns and morphometry of the ramus intermedius (RI) and diagonal branches, and propose a unified nomenclature.

Sutureless aortic valve replacement in a calcified homograft combined with mitral valve replacement

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2017
Background Aortic valve replacement in a patient with an aortic homograft can be very challenging, especially when concomitant mitral valve surgery needs to be performed.

Degenerative mitral valve regurgitation: best practice revolution [PDF]

, 2017
Degenerative mitral valve disease often leads to leaflet prolapse due to chordal elongation or rupture, and resulting in mitral valve regurgitation. Guideline referral for surgical intervention centres primarily on symptoms and ventricular dysfunction ...

A Streamline Strategy for Indication and Length of Telemetry Monitoring After TAVR

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Both indication and length of ECG telemetry monitoring (TM) after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) are not well defined. Aims We hypothesize that a targeted strategy for monitoring conductive disorders (CD) post‐TAVR can reduce the need and duration of in‐hospital TM without compromising safety. Methods We prospectively
