Replacement of an aortic Starr-Edwards ball valve prosthesis 28 years after implantation.
A 53-year-old woman who had undergone aortic valve replacement with a Starr-Edwards (S-E) valve (Model 1260) and open mitral commissurotomy 28 years previously was hospitalized with cardiac failure. Echocardiography showed mitral stenosis, mitral regurgitation, and a normally functioning S-E prosthesis. At reoperation, the mitral and aortic valves were replaced with St Jude bileaflet mechanical...
متن کاملBentall procedure 39 years after implantation of a Starr-Edwards Aortic Caged- Ball-Valve Prosthesis
We report a case of a male patient who received an implantation of a Starr-Edwards-caged-ball-valve-prosthesis in 1967. The surgery and postoperative course were without complications and the patient recovered well after the operation. For the next four decades, the patient remained asymptomatic--no restrictions on his lifestyle and without any complications. In 2006, 39 years after the initial...
متن کاملFixation of aortic ball valve prosthesis (Starr-Edwards).
The technique of fixation of a ball valve prosthesis in the area of the non-coronary cusp by bringing the sutures from the collar of the prosthesis out through the wall of the aorta and tying them over strips of dacron has been discussed by Starr, Edwards, McCord, and Griswold (1963), and advocated by Effler, Groves, and Favaloro (1964). We have never in our first 100 operated cases seen a leak...
متن کاملIntravascular haemolysis after valve replacement: comparative study between Starr-Edwards (ball valve) and Björk-Shiley (disc valve) prosthesis.
Seventy-four patients with single prosthetic valves (Björk-Shiley or Starr-Edwards) in the mitral or aortic position and 18 controls with rheumatic valvar heart disease were investigated for evidence of intravascular haemolysis. Serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) was used as the most sensitive indicator of haemolysis. Raised concentrations were found in a third of 39 patients with Björk-Shiley p...
