Mitral valve repair with aortic valve replacement is superior to double valve replacement [PDF]
The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2003 Double valve replacement has been advocated for patients with combined aortic and mitral valve disease. This study investigated the alternative that, when feasible, mitral valve repair with aortic valve replacement is superior.From 1975 to 1998, 813 patients underwent aortic valve replacement with either mitral valve replacement (n = 518) or mitral ...

Transjugular Tricuspid Valve-in-Valve Replacement [PDF]
Circulation, 2011 The patient is a 38-year-old woman with rheumatic heart disease requiring surgery 21 years ago. She received a St. Jude mechanical prosthesis in the mitral position and a Carpentier-Edwards Perimount bioprosthesis (size 31) in the tricuspid position. Over the past 2 years, she has become progressively more short of breath with regular admissions for ...

Hemodynamics of a Bileaflet Mechanical Heart Valve with Different Levels of Dysfunction [PDF]
Volume 2 Issue 5 - 2017, 2017 Heart disease is one of leading causes of mortality worldwide. Healthy heart valves are key for proper heart function. When these valves dysfunction, a replacement is often necessary in severe cases. The current study presents an investigation of the pulsatile blood flow through a bileaflet mechanical heart valve (BMHV) where one leaflet is healthy and

Interactive-Automatic Segmentation and Modelling of the Mitral Valve [PDF]
, 2019 Mitral valve regurgitation is the most common valvular disease, affecting 10% of the population over 75 years old. Left untreated, patients with mitral valve regurgitation can suffer declining cardiac health until cardiac failure and death. Mitral valve repair is generally preferred over valve replacement. However, there is a direct correlation between

Same-Day Discharge After Transcatheter Native Aortic and Mitral Valve-in-Valve Replacement
JACC: Case Reports, 2020 Transcatheter aortic valve replacement has become the gold standard of care in the management of patients with severe aortic stenosis and transcatheter mitral valve-in-valve replacement seems to be an attractive alternative to redo surgery. We report the
