  • Title: Transapical transcatheter valve-in-ring implantation following mitral annuloplasty.
    Author: Pfeiffer S, Gazdag L, Jessl J, Santarpino G.
    Journal: J Card Surg; 2017 Jul; 32(7):407-409. PubMed ID: 28589570.
    Abstract:
    Despite advances in surgical techniques for mitral valve repair, more than 20% of patients require reoperation within 10 years due to recurrence of severe mitral regurgitation. However, reoperations on the mitral valve are often associated with increased morbidity and mortality. We report a transapical mitral valve-in-ring implantation in a patient who had undergone mitral valve repair for ischemic mitral regurgitation using a complete semi-rigid Memo 3D mitral ring (LivaNova Group, Milan, Italy).
