Novel Wire‐Assisted Mitral Commissurotomy Reduces Valve Crossing Time Compared to Inoue‐Balloon Technique of Treating Mitral Stenosis, Randomized Controlled Trial [PDF]

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Percutaneous mitral commissurotomy (PMC) of mitral stenosis is routinely performed by the Inoue balloon technique (IBT) which may be challenging with respect to valvular crossing. Using a novel wire‐assisted method (WAM) may improve feasibility and time efficiency. Aims In a randomized clinical trial, we compared the feasibility and

Mixed Valvular Disease Following Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement: Quantification and Systematic Differentiation Using Clinical Measurements and Image-Based Patient‐Specific In Silico Modeling [PDF]

, 2020
Background: Mixed valvular disease (MVD), mitral regurgitation (MR) from pre‐existing disease in conjunction with paravalvular leak (PVL) following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), is one of the most important stimuli for left ventricle (LV)

Early diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases in workers: role of standard and advanced echocardiography [PDF]

, 2018
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) still remains the main cause of morbidity and mortality and consequently early diagnosis is of paramount importance. Working conditions can be regarded as an additional risk factor for CVD. Since different aspects of the job

The Role of 2D and 3D Echo in Mitral Stenosis

Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2021
Mitral stenosis is an important cause of heart valve disease globally. Echocardiography is the main imaging modality used to diagnose and assess the severity and hemodynamic consequences of mitral stenosis as well as valve morphology.

Presence Of A Congenitally Bicuspid Aortic Valve Among Patients Having Combined Mitral And Aortic Valve Replacement [PDF]

, 2012
Although bicuspid aortic valve occurs in an estimated 1% of adults and mitral valve prolapse in an estimated 5% of adults, occurrence of the 2 in the same patient is infrequent.

Assessment of Right Ventricular Systolic Function with 3-Dimensional Speckle Tracking Echocardiography in Isolated Mild Mitral Stenosis

Anatolian Journal of Cardiology, 2023
Background: In rheumatic severe mitral stenosis, right ventricular mechanics deteriorate with the increasing severity of mitral stenosis. Therefore, we aimed to investigate right ventricular mechanics in patients with mild mitral stenosis using 3 ...

Left Ventricular Remodeling Shortly after Open Mitral Valve Replacement for Rheumatic Mitral Stenosis

Brazilian Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery, 2021
Introduction: Left ventricular dysfunction after surgical treatment of mitral stenosis is uncommon. We intend to determine the pattern of left ventricular remodeling, shortly after open mitral valve replacement for rheumatic mitral stenosis, with in ...

How rare is isolated rheumatic tricuspid valve disease? [PDF]

, 2020
The incidence of rheumatic fever (RF) has markedly decreased in Europe since the beginning of the 20th century due to improved living conditions, early antibiotic therapy in streptococcal pharyngitis, and changes in serotypes of circulating streptococci.
