The Starr-Edwards valve.
This report reviews the results obtained with the current models of the Silastic ball valve, classifying the experience with the mitral and aortic models into the periods (formula: see text) before and after 1973. Valve failure is defined according to the Stanford method and includes any valve-related death or complication necessitating valve removal (there have been no mechanical failures). Co...
متن کاملLong-term prognosis of mitral or aortic valve replacement by a Starr-Edwards prosthesis.
A Swr-Edwards Silsstic hd-valve prosthesis was inserted in 100 seriously d l M e d patients with isolated aortic (55 case) or m i l d (45 caws) valve dbease. The follow-up study for periods of Urree years or more resulted in the following points. The o v e d mortslity rate reached 35 percent in both groups. but the operative risks were t h m times lea in the mrtic thno in the m i i d group. Thr...
متن کامل40 Years experience in mitral valve replacement using Starr-Edwards, St. Jude Medical and ATS valves.
BACKGROUND We have used the Starr-Edwards ball (S-E) valve since 1963, the St. Jude Medical (SJM) valve since 1978, and the ATS valve, since 1993 as the first choice of mechanical valve. In this study, the results with each valve during the 40 years were investigated in single mitral valve replacement (MVR) cases. PATIENTS AND METHODS The mean age for S-E valves was 32.8+/-11.1 years old (y.o...
متن کاملAcute dysfunction of Starr-Edwards mitral prostheses.
Four cases of acute dysfunction of Starr-Edwards mitral prostheses are recorded. The patients presented with sudden dyspnoea 4 to 18 months after apparently successful mitral valve replacement. The prosthetic valve dysfunction was caused by thrombus on the bare metal cage of the prosthesis. No warning thromboembolic phenomena had been recorded. Urgent replacement of the valve resulted in the su...
متن کاملProphylactic reoperation after mitral valve replacement with the Starr-Edwards ball valve: a report of four cases.
PURPOSE The Starr-Edwards ball valve was first applied clinically in 1960. In our hospital, this valve has been used since 1963, and some patients have been followed up for 30 years or more. Based on our experience, therapeutic strategies included revalve replacement as a preventive procedure in the absence of valve-related complications. In this study, we investigated whether prophylactic reop...
