Severe Mitral Regurgitation In Acute Eosinophilic Endomyocarditis ...
2007-11-27 05:50:00 Established eosinophilicendomyocardial disease usually causes progressive heart failure from diastolic restriction and/or valvular dysfunction. Surgical treatment typically involves resection ofendoventricular fibrosis and atrioventricular valve replacement. However, little is known of the clinicopathological behaviour andperioperative course of this disease in the early stages. Mitral valve repair seemingly offers an attractive surgical option in this scenario as it avoids prosthetic thrombosisâ arecognizedlate complication of this disease. This was attempted in conjunction with left ventricularthrombectomy in a patient with acute hypereosinophilia and congestive heart failure associated with severe mitral regurgitation and restrictive cardiomyopathy. Although the early clinical and echocardiographic outcome was excellent, the patient deteriorated rapidly after 3 months when identical pathology relapsed in the left heart causing recurrent severe mitral regurgitation and heart...

Transaortic Repair Of Mitral Regurgitation
2007-11-27 05:49:00 In the operative management of mitral regurgitation (MR) associated with aortic valve disease, a transaortic approach combining the bowtie mitral valve repair with replacement of the aortic valve appears to offer a less invasive and technically simple, expeditious alternative to conventional left atriotomy and Carpentier style repair. Methods: Between February 1997 and December 1999, six patients underwent a bowtie repair of the mitral valve via the aortic root with concomitant aortic valve replacement.

Percutaneous Valve Repair: Update On Mitral Regurgitation And ...
2007-11-27 05:49:00 Mitral regurgitation is a common valvular abnormality that generally increases in prevalence and severity with age. Current treatment of severe mitral regurgitation requires the use of cardiopulmonary bypass and mitral valve repair or replacement. Mitral valve surgery has a significant attendant morbidity and mortality. Currently, there are two methods in development to treat mitral regurgitation by percutaneous methods. These involve a modified Alfieri technique using an edge-to- edge repair, and posterior mitral annuloplasty via the coronary sinus. Human trials will soon begin. More About: Update , Repair , Valve

Acute And Chronic Reduction Of Functional Mitral Regurgitation In ...
2007-11-27 05:44:00 We sought to determine acute and chronic efcacy of a percutaneous mitral annuloplasty (PMA) device in experimental heart failure (HF). Further, we evaluated the potential for adverse effects on left ventricular (LV) function and coronary perfusion. BACKGROUND Reduction of mitral annular dimension with a PMA device in the coronary sinus may reduce functional mitral regurgitation (MR) in advanced HF.
