Mitral Valve Subvalvular Apparatus Repair with Artificial Neochords Application
Degenerative mitral valve (МV) disease is a common disorder affecting around 2% of the population (Enriquez-Sarano M et al., 2009). The most common ending in patients with degenerative valve disease is leaflet rolapsed due to elongation or rupture of the chordal apparatus, resulting in varying degrees of МV regurgitation due to leaflet malcoaptation during ventricular contraction. The emphasis ...
متن کاملEvaluation of Subvalvular Apparatus by 2-D Transthoracic Echocardiography
Functional mitral regurgitation (MR) is one of the major contributing factors for heart failure and hospitalization in both nonischemic and ischemic dilated cardiomyopathy. The limitation of undersized mitral annuloplasty has been recognized. Recurrent late MR is associated with continued left ventricular (LV) remodeling and enhanced papillary muscle displacement outside posterior ring after mi...
متن کاملRett syndrome: a surprising result of mutation in MECP2.
The identification of mutations in the gene encoding methyl CpG binding protein 2 (MeCP2) in Rett syndrome represents a major advance in the field. The current model predicts that MeCP2 represses transcription by binding methylated CpG residues and mediating chromatin remodeling. A physical interaction between MeCP2, histone deacetylases and the transcriptional co-repressor Sin3A has been demon...
متن کاملA Remnant Mitral Subvalvular Apparatus Mimicking Aortic Valve Vegetation after Mitral Valve Replacement
Preservation of the subvalvular apparatus has the merits of postoperative outcomes during mitral valve replacement for mitral regurgitation. We performed mitral valve replacement with anterior and posterior leaflet chordal preservation in a 65-year-old woman. On the 2nd postoperative day, routine postoperative trans-thoracic echocardiography showed an unknown aortic subvalvular mobile mass. We ...
متن کاملBlood Cyst of Subvalvular Apparatus of the Mitral Valve in an Adult
Blood cysts of the heart are rare benign tumors, usually involving the cardiac valves. They are found mainly in the first month of life and in children; and are rarely seen in adults. Here, we report a case of a blood cyst on the subvalvular apparatus of the mitral valve, which was incidentally discovered during chest computed tomography in a 47-year-old man. To the best of our knowledge, this ...
