Fig. 1From: Severe mitral valve insufficiency caused by standard surgical aortic valve implantation and its reparation using suture-less prosthesisEchocardiogram images after SU AVR using traditional sutured stented aortic prosthesis. A Mitral valve orifice—diastolic opening. B Mitral valve dysfunction during systolic leaflet closure, loss of coaptation. C Slightly restrictive anterior leaflet, impaired apposition and loss of coaptation of the mitral valve. D Severe mitral regurgitation showed by color Doppler echocardiographyBack to article page
