Electrophysiological properties in patients undergoing atrial compartment operation for chronic atrial fibrillation with mitral valve disease.
AIMS Surgical treatment for atrial fibrillation is now feasible in selective cases. The aim of this study was to assess the electrophysiological properties of patients undergoing atrial compartment operation for chronic atrial fibrillation. METHODS AND RESULTS Electrophysiological studies were performed in 20 mitral valve patients with atrial fibrillation who had been maintained in sinus rhyt...
متن کاملradiofrequency atrial fibrillation ablation technique in patients with mitral valve surgery and left atrial reduction procedures
background: about half of all patients who undergo mitral valve surgery suffer from atrial fibrillation (af). cox described the surgical cut-and-sew maze procedure, which is an effective surgical method but has some complications. this study was designed to evaluate the efficacy of a substitution method of radiofrequency ablation (rfa) for patients undergoing mitral valve surgery with af. metho...
متن کاملEchocardiographic predictors of atrial fibrillation after mitral valve replacement
Objectives Detection of the echocardiographic predictors of post-operative atrial fibrillation in patients with rheumatic mitral valve disease undergoing mitral valve replacement. Methods The study included 50 patients with rheumatic mitral valve disease undergoing mitral valve replacement. Preoperative assessment included standard two-dimensional echocardiography to assess LA diameter, volum...
متن کامل[Anatomic atrial remodeling after mitral valve surgery in permanent atrial fibrillation].
BACKGROUND Mitral valve pathology is frequently associated with atrial dilation and fibrillation. Mitral surgery allows immediate surgical atrial remodeling, and in those cases in which sinus rhythm is achieved, it is followed by late remodeling. The aim of this study was to investigate the process of postoperative atrial remodeling in patients with permanent atrial fibrillation who undergo mit...
متن کاملMitral valve disease, atrial fibrillation, and device therapy.
Transcatheter mitral interventions have been developed to address an unmet need, and as alternatives to surgery in patients at high risk or considered inoperable. Beyond MitraClip therapy, alternative repair technologies are being developed to expand the armamentarium of transcatheter intervention. Recently, the feasibility of transcatheter mitral valve implantation in native non-calcified valv...
