FIBROELASTIC DEFICIENCY : MITRAL VALVE REPAIR REFERENCE CENTER.
The Mitral Valve Repair Reference Center at Mount Sinai now offers patients the highest percentages of mitral valve repair anywhere in the world. The mitral valve is repaired by using a man-made fiber (Goretex) to replace stretched or broken chordae. The Mitral Valve Repair Reference Center at Mount Sinai now offers patients the highest percentages of mitral valve repair anywhere in the world. When feasible, mitral valve repair is the usual treatment of choice for correction of chronic mitral insufficiency. Mitral valve repair is a cardiac surgery procedure performed by cardiac surgeons to treat stenosis (narrowing) or regurgitation (leakage) of the mitral valve. Background— There are no randomized trials comparing outcomes after mitral valve (MV) repair and replacement. This video reviews techniques of artificial chordal replacement (ACR) as a component of complex mitral repair. Left atrial ball thrombus appears to be uncommon. Ball thrombi of the left atrium are usually observed with mitral valve disease. A total of seven canines were stud to assess the effects of RFA on mitral valve structure and function. Watch the Video: Mitral Valve Chordae Repair MPG file: 5 minutes, 34 seconds. Artificial chordal replacement (ACR) has emerged as a superior method of mitral valve repair with excellent early and late efficacy.
