Impact of the Type of Annuloplasty Prosthesis on Hemodynamic Status after Mitral Valve Repair in Egyptian Patients

The aim of this study is to evaluate mitral valve competency and gradient after mitral valve repair comparing rigid annuloplasty ring vs flat physio II ring.

Between October 2018 and October 2021, thirty-three (33) patients underwent mitral valve repair by flat physio ring and saddle shaped annuloplasty ring for degenerative and ischemic mitral valve disease respectively.

Correlation between postoperative mitral hemodynamics was evaluated, the ischemic patients were fully revascularized.
