简介
Background
The diagnostic performance of cardiac computed tomography (CT) for detection of paravalvular leakage (PVL) after mitral valve replacement has not been investigated in a large population. We aimed to investigate the diagnostic accuracy of CT for diagnosis of mitral PVL using surgical findings as the standard reference and to compare the diagnostic performance of CT with those of transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) and transesophageal echocardiography (TEE).
Methods and Results
A total of 204 patients with previous mitral valve replacement who underwent cardiac CT were retrospectively included. The presence of mitral PVL was analyzed on CT, TTE, and TEE. In 78 patients who underwent redo-surgery, diagnostic performance for the detection of PVL for CT, TTE, and TEE were compared with surgical findings as the standard reference. The location of mitral PVL on CT and TEE was …
