Английская Википедия:Heart valve repair
Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Refimprove Шаблон:Infobox medical intervention Heart valve repair is a cardiac surgery procedure, carried out to repair one or more faulty heart valves. In some valvular heart diseases repair where possible is preferable to valve replacement. A mechanical heart valve is a replacement valve that is not itself subject to repair.
General
Valvuloplasty is the widening of a stenotic valve using a balloon catheter. Types include:Шаблон:Cn
- Aortic valvuloplasty in repair of a stenotic aortic valve
- Mitral valvuloplasty in the correction of an uncomplicated mitral
Valvulotomy

By valve
Mitral valve repair
Шаблон:Main article Mitral valve repair is mainly used to treat stenosis (narrowing) or regurgitation (leakage) of the mitral valve.Шаблон:Cn
Aortic valve repair
Aortic valve repair is a surgical procedure used to correct some aortic valve disorders as an alternative to aortic valve replacement.[1] Aortic valve repair is performed less often and is more technically difficult than mitral valve repair. There are two surgical techniques of aortic-valve repair:
- The Reimplantation-Technique (David-Procedure)
- The Remodeling-Technique (Yacoub-Procedure)
Tricuspid valve repair
Tricuspid valve repair is used to correct tricuspid regurgitation.[2]
History
The first two percutaneous ultrasound-guided fetal balloon valvuloplasties, a type of in utero surgery for severe aortic valve obstruction, were reported in 1991.[3]
