The mitral valve: characterisation by real-time three-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography. Current status.
The complex anatomy of mitral valve demands precise and sophisticated imaging during any intervention .Transesophageal echocardiography has been the most frequently used modality. With the advent of three-dimensional echocardiography a more comprehensive description of the mitral valve is now possible. This review aims to discuss the framework for imaging the mitral valve by three-dimensional e...
متن کاملPartial detachment of mitral valve annuloplasty ring and evaluation with real-time 3D-transesophageal echocardiography
Mitral ring annuloplasty (MRA) is commonly considered as a treatment for those who require surgical revascularization due to coronary artery disease concomitant with moderate or severe mitral regurgitation (MR). In addition, the selection of an appropriate ring size is of importance in patients who undergo MRA. Moderate or severe MR may be an important issue with the use of partial detachment o...
متن کاملRole of real-time three-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography in mitral valve repair
Background and objective Pre-operative assessment of mitral valve (MV) anatomy is essential to surgical design in patients undergoing MV repair. Although 2-dimensional (2D) echocardiography provides precise information regarding MV anatomy, RT-3D TEE could increase the understanding of MV apparatus and individual scallop identification. We aimed to investigate the value of RT3DTEE in MV repair....
متن کاملReal-time three-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography to predict artificial chordae length for mitral valve repair
BACKGROUND Artificial chordae replacement is an effective technique for mitral valve repair, however, it is difficult to accurately determine the length of artificial chordae. This study aimed to assess the reliability and accuracy of real-time three-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) to predict the length of artificial chordae preoperatively. METHODS From December 2008 to Dec...
متن کاملMitral valve Libman-Sacks endocarditis visualized by real time three-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography.
Libman-Sacks endocarditis (LSE) is a common manifestation of valve disease in antiphospholipid syndrome. Mitral valve LSE is characterized by verrucous vegetations on the atrial surfaces of valve leaflets. In this report, mitral valve LSE was visualized by real time 3D transesophageal echocardiography (TEE). 3D TEE provides a unique en face view of the mitral valve akin to a surgical or autopsy...
