Prognostic value of preoperative myocardial fibrosis assessment by delayed enhancement cardiac magnetic resonance imaging in patients undergoing mitral valve repair
نویسندگان
چکیده
Background Cardiac MRI has been shown to be the gold standard for noninvasive assessment of myocardial fibrosis. The extent of fibrosis has been associated with worse outcomes in patients undergoing CABG surgery. The presence of fibrosis and associated clinical features of patients with chronic mitral regurgitation undergoing mitral valve repair have not been described. The objective of this study is to examine prognostic value of preoperative myocardial fibrosis assessment by cardiac MRI in patients with chronic mitral regurgitation undergoing mitral valve repair.

متن کاملLeft ventricular basal myocardial scarring detected by delayed enhancement magnetic resonance imaging predicts outcomes after surgical therapies for patients with ischemic mitral regurgitation and left ventricular dysfunction.
BACKGROUND Treatment of heart failure by surgical procedures such as mitral annuloplasty and left ventricular (LV) restoration is increasingly applied to patients with ischemic mitral regurgitation (IMR) and LV dysfunction. The clinical efficacy of delayed enhancement magnetic resonance imaging (DE-MRI) was studied to predict LV functional recovery and adverse outcomes after these therapies. ...

AIM To determine whether gadolinium-enhanced cardiac MRI (CMR) was of additional diagnostic value to standard assessment in patients with sarcoidosis who underwent evaluation for cardiac involvement. METHODS We reviewed the findings in patients with pulmonary sarcoidosis who had been assessed with ECG, Doppler echocardiography, 201Tl scintigraphy, and CMR from 2002 to 2004. RESULTS Of the 5...
