Late clinical and echocardiographic follow up after percutaneous balloon dilatation of the mitral valve.
OBJECTIVE To assess the outcome after attempted percutaneous balloon dilatation of the mitral valve in patients with severe mitral stenosis between February 1986 and June 1992. DESIGN Clinical state, mitral valve area, and restenosis at follow up were analysed. Mitral valve area as determined by the Gorlin formula, planimetry, and Doppler methods was compared before and after dilatation and a...
متن کاملMidterm echocardiographic follow-up after Ross operation.
BACKGROUND The pulmonary autograft (Ross) operation is an attractive treatment for aortic valve disease, but hemodynamic follow-up is not well defined. METHODS AND RESULTS One hundred thirty-two consecutive patients (62% male, mean age 40+/-11 years) were followed up to 5 years after the Ross operation. Echocardiography was performed early (within 30 days), 3 to 6 months, and yearly after sur...
متن کاملSurgical treatment of left ventricular aneurysms: a comparison of long-term follow-up of left ventricular function for classic aneurysmectomy and endoaneurysmorrhaphy techniques.
OBJECTIVE Myocardial infarction may be complicated by the formation of a left ventricular (LV) aneurysm that distorts the normal elliptical geometry of the ventricle to produce a dilated spherical ventricle with limited contractile and filling capacities. One of the consequences is congestive heart failure, which may be refractory to medical therapy and require surgical treatment. The aim of th...
متن کاملIndependent impact of thrombolytic therapy and vessel patency on left ventricular dilation after myocardial infarction. Serial echocardiographic follow-up.
BACKGROUND It has been shown that successful reperfusion of the infarct-related artery by thrombolysis can prevent left ventricular dilation after acute myocardial infarction; these beneficial effects were detected from several days to several months after infarction. To date, however, no study has shown that these effects can be demonstrated within hours after the onset of infarction. Furtherm...
متن کاملMedium-term echocardiographic follow-up of systolic and diastolic left ventricular abnormalities after surgical treatment of subacute rupture.
Subacute rupture of the left ventricular free wall is a complication that occurs during the acute phase of a myocardial infarction. The subacute presentation makes surgical management possible. However, it is not known whether either pericardial manipulation or the use of pericardial patches influences left ventricular function over the medium term. Our aim was to monitor changes in left ventri...
