Risk of infective endocarditis in patients with mitral valve prolapse: Systematic review with meta-analysis.
Heliyon
November 2024
Cardiology Department, Hospital Universitário de Santa Maria - ULS Santa Maria (ULSSM), CAML, Portugal.
Article Synopsis
- Infective endocarditis (IE) is a severe condition related to heart valves, and the study focused on how mitral valve prolapse (MVP) increases the risk of developing IE compared to the general population.
- The research compiled and analyzed data from six relevant studies, revealing that patients with MVP have about 7.83 times greater odds of developing IE.
- The findings suggest that the significant risk associated with MVP highlights the need for more research and potential preventive measures for those at risk.

Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, NewHeart Watanabe Institute, Tokyo, Japan.
Objective: To present our strategy and the clinical outcomes of robot-assisted Barlow mitral valve keyhole surgery.
Methods: From May 2015 to March 2022, a total of 1281 patients underwent mitral valve repair at our institution, including 763 with robotics surgeries. Of these, 124 patients with Barlow mitral valve (49 ± 12 years, male/female ratio = 81:43) were treated using robotic assistance and included in this study.

Repair of Mitral Valves with Severe Annular Dilatation and Abundant Leaflet Tissue Using a Prosthetic Ring with a Large Anterior-Posterior Diameter.
J Clin Med
March 2022
Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, German Heart Centre Munich, Technische Universität München, 80636 Munich, Germany.
Backround: Mitral valve (MV) repair in the case of a large anterior-posterior diameter and redundant valve tissue remains challenging and favors repair with a ring that exhibits a large anterior-posterior diameter. Compared to other available rings, the Medtronic Simulus annuloplasty ring shows the largest anterior-posterior diameter. This study reports for the first time mid-term results using this annuloplasty ring.
