    Summary

    Mitral valve reconstructive surgery showed good immediate results in 93.3% of patients. Long-term follow-up revealed 83.5% survival and improved functional class in most patients.

    Area of Science:

    • Cardiovascular Surgery
    • Cardiac Valve Repair
    • Thoracic Surgery

    Background:

    • Mitral valve incompetence is a significant cardiac condition.
    • Rheumatism is the primary cause of mitral valve disease in this cohort.
    • Many patients presented with advanced functional limitations and atrial fibrillation.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the outcomes of mitral valve reconstructive operations.
    • To assess both immediate and long-term results of mitral valve repair.
    • To determine patient survival and functional status post-surgery.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective analysis of 134 mitral valve reconstructive operations performed between 1978 and 1990.
    • Inclusion of data on patient demographics, etiology of disease, comorbidities, and surgical procedures.
    • Long-term follow-up of 120 patients for up to 12 years.

    Main Results:

    • Hospital mortality was 5.9%, with 4.4% mortality for isolated annulovalvuloplasty.
    • Excellent immediate results were observed in 93.3% of patients.
    • Actuarial survival reached 83.5% at 12 years, with 88.4% avoiding reoperation and 91.2% free from thromboembolic complications.

    Conclusions:

    • Mitral valve reconstructive surgery offers favorable short-term and long-term outcomes.
    • The procedure significantly improves patient functional class and survival rates.
    • Mitral valve repair is an effective treatment for severe mitral incompetence.
