FAQS
Mitral valve repair is commonly used to treat mitral valve pathology due to mitral regurgitation. In mitral valve repair, the surgeon repairs part of the damaged mitral valve to allow the valve to fully close and stop leaking. The surgeon may tighten or reinforce the ring around a valve, called the annulus, by placing an artificial ring called an annuloplasty ring.
By repairing the native valve rather than replacing it with a mechanical/ bioprosthetic valve, a patient can avoid long-term use of anticoagulants and problems, such as degeneration and infection. Surgeons usually recommend mitral valve repair instead of replacement, when possible.
Repair rates are usually >90% at 10 years
- The native valve is preserved
- No anticoagulation is required lifelong.
- Improved lifestyle.
- Better preservation of heart function.
- Lower risk of complications like stroke and endocarditis.
Residual MR and recurrence of mitral regurgitation are rare complications
HOCM denotes the thickening of the septum, or wall, separating the left and right ventricles. This may obstruct blood flow from the left ventricle to the body's main artery, the aorta.
The procedure known as a septal myectomy thins out the wall that separates the left and right sides of the heart which reduces the obstruction of blood flow out of the heart. This also corrects the mitral valve regurgitation associated with this condition.
Septal myectomy does not cure HOCM, it will reduce symptoms of fatigue, shortness of breath, and chest discomfort.
Valve-sparing aortic root replacement replaces the same portion of your aorta that is directly attached to your heart (aortic root) while preserving your native aortic valve whereas the Bentall procedure involves replacing a portion of the aorta and the aortic valve of the heart due to an aortic aneurysm.
- The native valve is preserved.
- No anticoagulation is required.
90% freedom for reintervention at 10 years.
Marfan syndrome is a genetic disorder that affects the connective tissue. Marfan syndrome most commonly affects the heart, eyes, blood vessels, and skeleton.
Marfan syndrome is a chronic disorder. Life-threatening problems are aortic aneurysms and dissections.
It is possible to validate a probable diagnosis of Marfan syndrome by genetic testing. When family members are genetically tested for this disease, the results can be used to identify those family members who have the mutation from those who do not. This is very useful information for the family. To avoid aortic dissections, family members who carry the gene might be evaluated for aortic disease, monitored for it, and treated before complications.
This procedure is an advanced minimally invasive technique for multi-vessel coronary bypass (CABG) through a small thoracotomy.
