ObjectiveTo evaluate outcomes of mitral valvuloplasty with artificial chord and mitral annuloplasty ring in patients with mitral valve prolapse. MethodsFrom January 2012 to March 2014, mitral valvuloplasty with artificial chord and mitral annuloplasty ring were performed for 58 patients with mitral valve prolapsed in Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, Fujian Provincial Hospital, among which 47 simple anterior or posterior mitral valvuloplasty and 11 combined anterior-posterior mitral valvuloplasty were completed. There were 33 males and 25 females aged (53.7±14.3) years. ResultsThere was no in-hospital death. Three patients received mitral valve replacement. The transoesophageal echocardiography found no or trivial mitral regurgitation in 48 patients, mild mitral regurgitation in 7 patients. The diameter of the left atrium (LA) and left ventricle (LV), left ventricular end-diastolic volume (LVEDV) and left ventricular end-systolic volume (LVESV) were significantly decreased after the operation. During the follow-up of 6 months to 2 years, the cardiac function of the patients improved. ConclusionMitral valvuloplasty with artificial chord and mitral annuloplasty ring is simple, reliable and effective treatment for patients with mitral valve prolapse, and its shortand mid-term outcome is good.
