Transapical access closure of a mechanical mitral prosthesis leak.
A 62-year-old woman with a history of rheumatic mitral valve disease and commissurotomy closed in 1969, implantation of a Shiley biological mitral prosthesis in 1978, and its replacement in 1998 by a No. 25 Bjork mechanical prosthesis, showed symptoms consistent with congestive heart disease and analytical findings indicating hemolytic anemia. Transesophageal echocardiography detected 2 mitral ...

متن کاملTransapical transcatheter aortic valve implantation in the presence of a mitral prosthesis.
OBJECTIVES We review our experience with transapical transcatheter aortic valve implantation (AVI) in patients with functioning mitral prostheses, and describe the technical considerations. BACKGROUND Transcatheter AVI for aortic stenosis in patients with mitral prostheses is technically challenging. METHODS Ten patients (7 mechanical and 3 bioprosthetic mitral valves) received the Edwards ...
متن کاملTransapical aortic valve implantation in the presence of a mitral prosthesis.
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI), using the Edwards Sapien balloon expandable valve (Edwards Lifesciences, Irvine, California, USA) has expanded our ability to treat patients with symptomatic severe aortic stenosis, and become the treatment of the choice in high risk inoperable patients (1,2). Further inroads into its application in subgroup populations, such as patients with a fu...
متن کاملMitral Ball-Valve Prosthesis
REPLACEMENT of nonfunctioning valves is a significant recent advancement in the correction of cardiac valvular disease. The most widely used artificial device replacing the mitral valve is the Starr-Edwards ballvalve prosthesis.' Its effectiveness was shown in recent reports by the marked clinical improvement in properly selected patients.2 However, cardiologists and cardiac surgeons are faced ...
