  • Title: Mitral Omnicarbon monoleaflet valve dehiscence mapped by 3D echocardiography.
    Author: Sade LE, Uluçam M, Müderrisoğlu H.
    Journal: Eur J Echocardiogr; 2008 Jan; 9(1):82-3. PubMed ID: 17369099.
    Abstract:
    A patient with a prosthetic mitral valve presented with dyspnea, a new murmur and anemia. Real time three-dimensional (3D) echocardiography revealed a large valvular dehiscence that spanned approximately 50% of the circumference of the valve ring. By transesophageal echocardiography the paravalvular leak was mapped between 60 and 180 degrees that exactly matched the 3D echocardiographic appearance.
