Perioperative echocardiographic imaging after mitral valve repair for ischemic, inflammatory, and degenerative incompetence

  • Chapter
Mitral Valve Repair

Abstract

Perioperative echocardiographic imaging has become an indispensable component of contemporary mitral valve repair. Mitral valve reconstruction surgery was popularized by the French surgeon Alain Carpentier and has continuously gained popularity over prosthetic valve replacement. At our institution, the Deutsches Herzzentrum Berlin (DHZB), Roland Hetzer modified the Gerbode and the Paneth techniques of mitral valve reconstruction effectively without using fabric material.
