متن کاملThe Starr-Edwards model 6000 valve. A fifteen-year follow-up of the first successful mitral prosthesis.
The Starr-Edwards model 6000 mitral valve was the first successful mitral prosthesis. A fifteen year follow-up of 110 patients undergoing isolated mitral valve replacement with this prosthesis from 1960 to 1966 is presented. There were 22 (20%) operative and 37 (42%) late deaths at a mean of 8.6 years postoperatively. Preoperative variables leading to late death and thromboembolism are analyzed...
متن کاملMitral valve replacement with Alvarez prosthesis: long-term results.
Since the introduction of the Alvarez mitral valve prosthesis in 1964 it has been used clinically in Leeds General Infirmary because it was thought that it would produce better haemodynamic results than the other prosthetic valves. The aim of this study is to present the longterm results in patients who had this prosthesis inserted in the mitral valve position, and to show the high incidence of...
متن کاملIsolated mitral valve replacement with St. Jude medical prosthesis: long-term results: a follow-up of 19 years.
BACKGROUND In this retrospective study, approximately 440 patients received mitral valve replacements with the St Jude Medical prosthesis. The last patient was operated on 10 years before the beginning of the follow-up. The extended follow-up was 19 years. METHODS AND RESULTS Four hundred forty patients (sex ratio, 1.32 [men to women]; age, 60+/-11.4 years; age range, 7 to 75 years) were oper...
متن کاملDiastolic murmurs in the presence of Starr-Edwards mitral prosthesis.
Diastolic murmurs associated with the Starr-Edwards mitral prosthesis have not been described previously. In this report, five patients with mitral prostheses are described in whom apical mid-diastolic and presystolic murmurs resulted from two different causes. Three patients had clots obstructing the prosthetic orifice. The other two had normally functioning protheses and moderately severe aor...
