Evaluation of the effect of mitral stenosis severity on the left ventricular systolic function using isovolumic myocardial acceleration. Cardiol J. 2014;21(4):442–448. doi:10.5603/CJ.a2013.0114 25. Ferreira MVS, Cunha CRD, Oliveira GS, et al. Left Ventricular Remodeling Shortly after Open ...
At reoperation, the most common mechanism of mitral stenosis was pannus ingrowth in 20 patients (57%), leaflet calcification in 12 (34%), commissural fusion in 5 (14%), and tunnel effect (functional MS) in 3 (9%). Twenty-two patients (63%) underwent valve replacement and 13 (37%) ...
Abbreviations: AS, aortic stenosis; DMR, degenerative mitral regurgitation; FMR, functional mitral regurgitation; LVEDD, left ventricular end-diastolic diameter; LVEF, left ventricular ejection fraction; MR, mitral regurgitation; PASP, pulmonary arterial systolic pressure; RV, right ventricle; TAPSE, tricu...
These assessments aid in confirming the effectiveness of the procedure and ensure that no complications, such as stenosis, have arisen as a result of the intervention. This evaluation relies on a multiparametric approach, considering not only the transmitral gradient, but also pressure half-time (...
