Clinical Effect of Left Ventricular Dysfunction in Patients with Mitral Stenosis after Mitral Valve Replacement
BACKGROUND Mitral stenosis (MS) remains one of the important heart diseases. There are many factors that influence the clinical outcomes, and little is known about how left ventricular (LV) dysfunction clinically affects the prognosis of the patient with MS after mitral valve replacement (MVR). We reviewed our clinical experiences of MVR in patients with MS who had LV dysfunction. METHODS Bet...
متن کاملEchocardiographic assessment of left ventricular filling after mitral valve surgery.
In order to investigate the functional effects of mitral valve surgery, echocardiograms showing left ventricular dimension were recorded and digitised in 14 normal subjects and 129 patients after mitral valve surgery. Measurements were made of peak rate of increase of dimension (dD/dt) and duration of rapid filling, studies on left ventriculograms in 36 patients having shown close correlation b...
متن کاملThe effect of mitral valve surgery on ventricular arrhythmia in patients with bileaflet mitral valve prolapse
BACKGROUND Bileaflet mitral valve prolapse (biMVP) is associated with frequent ventricular ectopy (VE) and malignant ventricular arrhythmia. We examined the effect of mitral valve (MV) surgery on VE burden in biMVP patients. METHODS We included 32 consecutive patients undergoing MV surgery for mitral regurgitation secondary to biMVP between 1993 and 2012 at Mayo Clinic who had available pre- ...
متن کاملConcomitant mitral valve surgery in patients undergoing surgical ventricular reconstruction for ischaemic cardiomyopathy.
OBJECTIVES Ischaemic mitral valve regurgitation is associated with a significant reduction in survival and its treatment in patients undergoing surgical ventricular reconstruction is usually associated with higher perioperative morbidity and mortality. We evaluated our 11-year experience in this cohort of patients. METHODS Between January 2000 and December 2010, a total of 282 patients underw...
متن کاملMitral valve surgery: Does it really decrease ventricular arrhythmia in patients with mitral valve prolapse?
Mitral valve (MV) prolapse (MVP) is characterized by fibromyxomatous changes in themitral leaflet tissue, with superior displacement of one or both leaflets into the left atrium. It is not an uncommon finding on echocardiographic screening, afflicting 2e3% of the general population, though most of them remain asymptomatic [1e3]. MVP can be distinguished into primary (nonsyndromic) and secondary...
