Endovascular Edge-to-Edge Mitral Valve Repair
Background—The edge-to-edge technique is an accepted method for the surgical repair of a regurgitant mitral valve. This study reports the initial use of an endovascular technology that enables a double-orifice edge-to-edge mitral valve repair without cardiopulmonary bypass in an animal model. Methods and Results—Adult pigs (n 14) were anesthetized, and left thoracotomy was performed for epicard...
متن کاملPulmonary Hemorrhage following Edge-to-Edge Mitral Valve Repair
Mitral valve repair with the MitraClip device has emerged as an effective treatment option for patients with severe mitral regurgitation and contraindications for surgical interventions. While the procedure is not known to cause pulmonary complications, we describe two cases of pulmonary hemorrhage following percutaneous mitral valve repair. The patients did well with supportive care and reinit...
متن کاملThe edge-to-edge technique for mitral valve repair

Appropriate indications and awareness of the important technical aspects of the procedure are prerequisites for a good outcome. The free edges of ...
متن کاملpercutaneous mitral valve repair with the edge-to-edge technique: case series of first iranian experience
mitral regurgitation (mr) is a common valvular lesion in the general population with considerable impact on mortality and morbidity. the mitraclip system (abbot laboratories, abbot park, il, usa) is a novel percutaneous approach for treating mr which involves mechanical edge-to-edge coaptation of the mitral leaflets. we present our initial experience with the mitraclip system in 5 patients. in ...
متن کاملEdge-to-edge mitral valve repair without ring annuloplasty for acute ischemic mitral regurgitation.
BACKGROUND Alfieri edge-to-edge mitral repair has been used clinically with ring annuloplasty to correct ischemic mitral regurgitation (IMR), but its efficacy without concomitant ring annuloplasty has not been described in this setting. METHODS Seventeen sheep underwent implantation of 9 radiopaque markers on the left ventricle, 8 on the mitral annulus (MA), 1 on each papillary muscle (PM) ti...
