Mitral valve area in combined mitral stenosis and regurgitation. [PDF]

open access: bronzeCirculation, 1976
Eight patients with mixed mitral stenosis and regurgitation underwent hemodynamic and angiographic study prior to mitral valve replacement. The stenotic orifice of the mitral valve was calculated employing the total left ventricular stroke volume by cineangiography as the numerator of the Gorlin Formula. Excellent agreement with the measured orifice of

Mitral Valve Stenosis after Open Repair Surgery for Non-Rheumatic Mitral Valve Regurgitation: a Review

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2016
Mitral stenosis (MS) after mitral valve repair is a slowly progressive condition, usually detected many years after the index mitral valve surgery. It is defined as a transmitral pressure gradient (TMPG) of >5 mmHg or a mitral valve area (MVA)
