The Technique of Total Mitral Valve Replacement.
Total mitral valve replacement was first successfully accomplished by Starr and Edwards (1961) using a ball valve prosthesis. We have adopted their method for patients in whom the pathological changes make it impossible to obtain a mobile anterior mitral leaflet due to calcifications or shortened fused chordae tendineae. This paper describes an instrument that holds the ball valve prosthesis in...
متن کاملRight sided heart evaluation after successful mitral valve replacement.
Introduction: It is well-documented that right-sided heart dysfunction and significant tricuspid valve regurgitation (TVR) have adverse effects on patient outcomes after left-sided heart valve surgery. Therefore, the evaluation of right ventriclular (RV) function and TR severity in patients who had undergone mitral valve replacement (MVR), associated with/without concomitant su...
متن کاملIndications for Mitral Valve Replacement?
Now that it is possible to treat mitral 'valve disease by valve replacement as well as by commissurotomy, and now that it is relatively simple to have either method readily available, it is most important to know which valves should be replaced and which can be safely treated by valvotomy. When the surgeon palpates the valve at operation he may feel stenosis, regurgitation, calcification, or an...
متن کاملMitral Valve Replacement On
Introduction: Cardiac reperfusion injury is a well-described complication occurring after ischemia or following cardioplegic arrest. The primary aim of this study was to evaluate and compare safety of Mitral valve replacement on beating heart without using cross clamp with the conventional Mitral valve replacement. Material and methods: It was a retrospective observational study for study durat...
متن کاملMinimally Invasive Mitral Valve Replacement Using the Valve-in-valve Technique.
A 90-year-old woman with two previous mitral valve replacements, presented with pulmonary edema due to mitral regurgitation from degeneration of her bioprosthetic mitral valve. A minimally invasive approach was used to replace the bioprosthetic mitral valve. During surgery, the bioprosthetic valve was noted to be too adherent to the endocardium of the left atrium, making removal of the prosthes...
