Beschreibungen/Notizen

• Patient #3 was a 66-year-old woman with morbid obesity, renal failure, prior AVR, post-endocarditis mitral regurgitation (MR) with chordal rupture, and failure of surgical valve repair due to extensive MAC (Figure 1, panel 3A). In Patient #2, the 26-mm valve seemed too high in the mitral annulus. [...]a second 26-mm valve was implanted into the first valve in a more appropriate ventricular position (Figure 1, panel 2B).
