Mitral valve disease is the most common valvular heart disorder affecting almost 10% of people over 75 years of age.(1) Mitral regurgitation is the most common disorder of the mitral valve and can be divided into primary (structural or degenerative abnormality of the mitral valve) or secondary (disease of the left ventricle interfering with the function of the mitral valve apparatus) mitral ...

Grossly: Small vegetations are visible along the line of closure of the mitral valve leaflets with fibrous thickening and fusion of valve leaflets. See above. Mitral stenosis. Grossly: Valve leaflets and chordae tendineae are thick, rigid, and interadherent. The mitral orifice is narrowed to a slit like channel.

The Edwards SAPIEN 3 transcatheter heart valve, model 9600TFX, and accessories are indicated for relief of aortic stenosis in patients with symptomatic heart disease due to severe native calcific aortic stenosis who are judged by a Heart Team, including a cardiac surgeon, to be at intermediate or greater risk for open surgical therapy (i.e., predicted risk of surgical mortality ≥ 3% at 30 ...

MR occurs when the leaflets (or flaps) of the heart’s mitral value do not close properly and leak. The mitral valve is a one-way valve that separates the left atrium (a chamber in the heart which collects blood from the lungs) from the left ventricle (a chamber in the heart which pumps blood to the rest of the body).

Mitral regurgitation may be caused by abnormalities of the valve leaflets, chordae tendinae, papillary muscles or mitral annulus: Valve leaflets - myxomatous degeneration causing mitral valve prolapse - shortening, rigidity, deformity and retraction due to rheumatic heart disease - vegetations due to infective endocarditis. Chordae tendinae

At autopsy, the pathologic features of the mitral valve include leaflets that are thickened and redundant with annular dilatation, focal chordal thickening, and occasionally fusion or even rupture of the apparatus. Microscopic studies document myxedematous transformation in the central portion of the involved leaflets.

A narrowed outflow tract between the upper septum and the anterior mitral leaflet, which is very thickened and fibrosed from repeated contact with the septum, can also be seen.

Mitral valve regurgitation may cause plaques in the LA (jet lesion) called MacCallum plaques. Chronic Rheumatic Disease. Involves the valves – not the pericardium or myocardium. Is due to post-inflammatory thickening and deformation of the leaflets. Involves: Mitral valve virtually always (65 – 70% alone) MV + AV if two valves
