Mitral-valve repair for mitral-valve prolapse.
n engl j med 361;23 nejm.org december 3, 2009 2261 This Journal feature begins with a case vignette that includes a therapeutic recommendation. A discussion of the clinical problem and the mechanism of benefit of this form of therapy follows. Major clinical studies, the clinical use of this therapy, and potential adverse effects are reviewed. Relevant formal guidelines, if they exist, are prese...
متن کاملRobotic mitral valve repair.
BACKGROUND Mitral valve repair is the standard therapy for patients with severe mitral regurgitation. Currently, robotic mitral valve repair is the least invasive surgical approach and an alternative to the traditional sternotomy. Recent studies and newer guidelines on mitral valve repair advocate for earlier referral to surgery, resulting in better long-term outcomes of valve function and decr...
متن کاملPercutaneous mitral valve repair.
Nonsurgical treatment of clinically important mitral regurgitation (MR) has evolved tremendously over the past decade. Recent studies of percutaneous mitral valve repair procedures have shown that less invasive procedures are safe and can be effective in selected patients. MitraClip has been studied most extensively. The MitraClip is attached to the middle scallop of the mitral leaflets by a tr...
متن کاملMitral valve repair
Mitral regurgitation (MR) is the most common valvular heart disease in the Western world. The MR can be either organic (mainly degenerative in Western countries) or functional (secondary to left ventricular remodeling in the context of ischemic or idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy). Degenerative and functional MR are completely different disease entities that pose specific decision-making probl...
متن کاملMitral Valve Repair
Mitral valve repair is shown to have better survival, preservation of ventricular function and decreased thromboembolic complications compared to mitral valve replacement for mitral regurgitation (MR).13–15 At our institution, we have developed a simple algorithm for mitral valve repair in myxomatous disease, which allows reproducible and durable repair. Our general plan is described by the fol...
