Abstract
The incidence of paravalvular leak (PVL) following surgical valve replacement is 5-17%. Our main aim is to determine the safety and efficacy of percutaneous device closure for significant PVLs.Transcatheter device closure was done for 45 PVLs in 42 patients. PVLs were closed percutaneously in mitral position in 23 cases, in aortic position in 20 cases, and combined mitral and aortic leaks in 2 cases. We achieved a technical success rate of 93.33% and procedural success rate of 91.11%. Transcatheter PVL closure is a safe and effective procedure for symptomatic PVLs.
期刊介绍:
Indian Heart Journal (IHJ) is the official peer-reviewed open access journal of Cardiological Society of India and accepts articles for publication from across the globe. The journal aims to promote high quality research and serve as a platform for dissemination of scientific information in cardiology with particular focus on South Asia. The journal aims to publish cutting edge research in the field of clinical as well as non-clinical cardiology - including cardiovascular medicine and surgery. Some of the topics covered are Heart Failure, Coronary Artery Disease, Hypertension, Interventional Cardiology, Cardiac Surgery, Valvular Heart Disease, Pulmonary Hypertension and Infective Endocarditis. IHJ open access invites original research articles, research briefs, perspective, case reports, case vignette, cardiovascular images, cardiovascular graphics, research letters, correspondence, reader forum, and interesting photographs, for publication. IHJ open access also publishes theme-based special issues and abstracts of papers presented at the annual conference of the Cardiological Society of India.
