Early experiences of intra-operative trans-oesophageal echocardiography (TEE) in mitral valve repair.
Whenever possible Mitral valve repair should be performed instead of Mitral valve replacement. It is important to assess the adequacy of the repair during the operation so that any corrective steps may be taken immediately. We present three cases of Mitral valve repair in which the intraoperative TEE was used to assess the adequacy of the repair. There was good correlation of the immediate post...
متن کاملIntraoperative Doppler color flow mapping for decision-making in valve repair for mitral regurgitation. Technique and results in 100 patients.
Mitral valve repair provides substantial advantages over mitral valve replacement in patients with severe mitral regurgitation. However, because of the possibility of persistent regurgitation, an intraoperative technique is needed to provide an immediate and accurate assessment of the adequacy of the repair before closure of the chest. One hundred patients with pure mitral regurgitation were st...
متن کاملValue of transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) guidance in minimally invasive mitral valve surgery.
The role of intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) has increased tremendously since its first use in 1979. Today intraoperative TEE is a class I indication for surgical mitral valve reconstruction for evaluation of mitral valve pathology, graduation of mitral regurgitation and detection of potential risk factors as well as post-repair assessment. Real-time three-dimensional TEE o...
متن کاملNovel intraoperative evaluation for mitral valve regurgitation: retrograde cardioprotective beating test.
In mitral valvuloplasty, the saline injection test is commonly employed. However, discrepancies in regurgitation between the naked eye findings during the saline injection test and the postoperative echocardiographical findings are noted. Here, we describe a technique that allows direct transatrial evaluation of the valve in the fully loaded, beating heart without the risks of air embolism. Phy...
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...
