Background Conventional annuloplasty repair of secondary (functional) ischemic mitral
regurgitation (IMR) is associated with a 60% recurrence of moderate or greater mitral …

Objective The aim of this study is to evaluate mitral valve hemodynamics after mitral valve
repair for degenerative disease, and seek the impact of type/size of annuloplasty prosthesis …

To optimize mitral valve repair outcomes, it is crucial to comprehend the predictors of
functional mitral valve stenosis (FMS), to enhance preoperative assessments, and to adapt …

Downsizing of mitral annulus due to mitral annuloplasty for ischemic functional mitral
regurgitation (FMR) raises a new issue, functional mitral stenosis (FMS), defined as a …

In this study, we hypothesized that post-operative aorto-mitral angle might be associated to
the occurrence of post-operative atrial arrhythmia (AA), including atrial fibrillation and atrial …

Background: There is no consensus regarding the selection criteria for the annuloplasty
rings, although some publications have addressed this issue. Usually, complete rigid rings …

Evaluation of embolic stroke mechanism is an important diagnostic step in approaching
patients with ischemic stroke (IS). Cardiogenic embolism has been estimated to be the …
