severe rheumatic mitral stenosis is a condition with a dismal prognosis if surgical therapy is not considered an option. its prevalence has diminished in recent decades in developed countries, but some cases are still diagnosed in elderly patients with reduced access to healthcare. report of a ...
Here, we present a case of a middle-aged man with history of bioprosthetic mitral valve who presented with syncopal episode and was referred to us for mitral valve replacement for tentative bioprosthetic valve degeneration and stenosis. However, preoperative work up revealed prosthetic valve ...

Transcatheter mitral valve replacement via a valve-in-valve approach may be a safer and effective alternative to surgical replacement when termination of pregnancy is not sought for severe bioprosthetic mitral valve stenosis.JACC: Case ReportsKathy Mostajeran DOHarrison VanDolah MDPhillip Gideon MD...
The patient underwent percutaneous transcatheter mitral valve repair using a single MitraClip, which reduced the MR; however it created mild-to-moderate mitral stenosis, which progressed to severe mitral stenosis. Subsequently the patient underwent mitral valve replacement surgery. doi: 10.1111/jocs.12692...
The mechanisms leading to rheumatic valve disease (with involvement of mitral valve 80%) is based on antigenic mimicity of the M protein antigen found in both heart structures and group A hemolytic Streptococcus and autoimmune reaction. Mitral stenosis progress in time from leaflet thickening and ...
Additionally, another study found that the long-term clinical outcomes of MVR combined with tricuspid valvuloplasty in in patients with severe mitral valve stenosis with mild to moderate FTR were superior to those of MVR alone [17]. The findings of this study also indicated a negative correlation...
The diagnosis of congenital severe mitral stenosis due to acommissural MV was confirmed, the case was discussed in our heart team meeting, and it was decided to go for MV replacement with a bioprosthetic valve. During surgery, the surgical appearance of the MVs confirmed our diagnosis by 3D (...
Patients with poor quality echocardiographic images, moderate/severe mitral valve stenosis, mitral valve prosthesis, amyloidosis, or atrial fibrillation were excluded. Baseline echocardiographic images were analyzed offline to measure biplane LA volume, LAVI, LAS conduit (cd), LAS contractile (ct), and ...
Background: In our Heart Center, the cause of mitral stenosis (MS) is usually classified into 3 different categories/etiologies, namely, rheumatic disease, degenerative disease with annular or leaflet calcification, and MS as a consequence of a transcatheter mitral repair with clips for mitral regur...
