Mitral Valve Disease: The Different Faces & Treatment Options

https://www.HeartValveSurgery.com - Mitral valve disease is one of the most complex forms of cardiac disease. This degenerative and congenital disorder can lead to debilitating symptoms and premature death. Interestingly, there are many different types of mitral valve disease resulting from poor leaflet function, compromised annular structure, excess tissue, infection and calcification. In this special video, Dr. Marc Gerdisch, Chief of Cardiac Surgery at Franciscan Health in Indianapolis, Indiana, describes the different types, or "faces", of mitral valve disease that he sees in the operating room. Dr. Gerdisch is a mitral valve expert having performed over 5,000 heart valve repair and replacement procedures. Key topics addressed in this video include mitral regurgitation, mixed mitral insufficiency, calcification, rheumatic fever, overlapping valve leaflets, second mitral regurgitation, endocarditis, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, atrial fibrillation, mitral valve repair, and minimally-invasive techniques.
