Does surgery for mitral paravalvular leaks provide reasonable early and long-term outcomes?
Surgery for mitral paravalvular leaks provides reasonable early and long-term outcomes, highlighting the importance of the anterolateral annulus in preventing PVL.
Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
May inform surgical decisions for mitral PVL; leaves open comparative trials versus transcatheter approaches.
Surgery for mitral PVL confers reasonable early and long-term outcomes. Greater attention to the anterolateral annulus may help prevent PVL.
