Premature valve closure in patients with a mitral Starr-Edwards prosthesis and aortic incompetence.
A mitral Starr-Edwards ball valve has, in three patients with concomitant aortic incompetence, permitted recognition of intermittent premature valve closure by auscultation and this has been documented by phonocardiograms. In two instances the observations were confirmed during cardiac catheterization. The features of premature Starr valve closure are described and the mechanism is discussed.
متن کاملFixation of aortic ball valve prosthesis (Starr-Edwards).
The technique of fixation of a ball valve prosthesis in the area of the non-coronary cusp by bringing the sutures from the collar of the prosthesis out through the wall of the aorta and tying them over strips of dacron has been discussed by Starr, Edwards, McCord, and Griswold (1963), and advocated by Effler, Groves, and Favaloro (1964). We have never in our first 100 operated cases seen a leak...

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 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...
متن کاملBentall procedure 39 years after implantation of a Starr-Edwards Aortic Caged- Ball-Valve Prosthesis
We report a case of a male patient who received an implantation of a Starr-Edwards-caged-ball-valve-prosthesis in 1967. The surgery and postoperative course were without complications and the patient recovered well after the operation. For the next four decades, the patient remained asymptomatic--no restrictions on his lifestyle and without any complications. In 2006, 39 years after the initial...
