The Influence of Annuloplasty Ring Geometry on Mitral Leaflet Curvature

BACKGROUND: The effect of mitral leaflet curvature on stress reduction is an important mechanism in optimizing valve function. We hypothesize that annuloplasty ring shape could directly influence leaflet curvature and, potentially, repair durability. We describe an echocardiographically based method...
