Annuloplasty ring or band dehiscence is a possible complication of mitral valve repair surgery. It may be due to increased tension on the annuloplasty sutures, especially in ischemic mitral pathology in which a circumferential ring is used. Herein, we describe a technique for alternative suture placement in mitral annuloplasty using pledgeted sutures that may reduce the risk for ring or band dehiscence.
瓣环成形环或带裂开是二尖瓣修复手术的一种可能并发症。这可能是由于瓣环成形缝线张力增加所致,尤其是在使用圆周环的缺血性二尖瓣病变中。在此,我们描述一种使用带垫片缝线进行二尖瓣瓣环成形术替代缝线放置的技术,该技术可能会降低环或带裂开的风险。
