Papillary Muscle Repositioning for Repair of Anterior Leaflet Prolapse
Surgery for Acquired Cardiovascular Disease Dreyfus, Souza Neto, and Aubert Papillary muscle repositioning for repair of anterior leaflet prolapse caused by chordal elongation Gilles D. Dreyfus, MD, PhD, FRCS, Olivio Souza Neto, MD, and Stéphane Aubert, MD, MSc Objective: Anterior leaflet prolapse is still a challenge. Various techniques have been described, but very little is known of the long-term outcome. We describe the long-term results of papillary muscle repositioning, with up to 15 years’ follow-up. Methods: From 1989 through 2005, 120 patients with anterior leaflet prolapse (97 bileaflet and 23 isolated anterior leaflet) were treated with papillary muscle repo- sitioning when chordae were elongated. All patients had severe mitral regurgitation. The mean left ventricular end-systolic diameter on echocardiography was 39.4 Ϯ 5.2 mm. The predominant cause was degenerative: dystrophic disease in 62 and Barlow’s disease in 43. Papillary muscle repositioning was carried out on the posterior papillary muscle in 92.5% and on the anterior papillary muscle in 31.7%. A ring annuloplasty was performed in 117 cases. Fifty-seven (47.5%) patients had a tricuspid annuloplasty. Results: There were no in-hospital deaths or patients lost to follow-up. Mean ACD follow-up was 6.3 Ϯ 0.4 years (maximum, 15.6 years). Cumulative actuarial survival at 5, 10, and 15 years was 97.2%, 94.1%, and 81.4%, respectively. Two (1.7%) patients required reoperation at 1 and 5 years after repair. No significant risk factor was identified for late mortality or reoperation. At the latest assessment, 88 (73.3%) patients were asymptomatic. -
Nature Medicine Essay
LASKER CLINICAL MEDICAL RESEARCH AWARD COMMENTARY The surprising rise of nonthrombogenic valvular surgery Alain Carpentier Surgery has always been regarded as an art rather than a science—the art of curing dis- eases by manipulating instruments with one’s hands. In the past, progress resulted from the development of new ways of cutting, excising, resealing and suturing. Nowadays, this is no longer the case. My own specialty—cardiac surgery—did not exist 60 years ago. Its spectacular devel- opment would not have been possible with- out the contribution of basic sciences and engineering. Surgeons who participated in its development had to master these sciences. A visit to a cardiac surgery operating room may give an idea of the influence of these dis- ciplines. In a 50-square-meter room, a patient is lying on the operating table with his chest open and his beating heart exposed to the dazzling light of three “suns of crystal”, as Figure 1 First (homemade) glutaraldehyde-treated pig valve implanted in human.

Event Programme
Event Programme 2nd - 4th December 2017 | Groote Schuur Hospital, University of Cape Town Welcome Dear Colleague, It gives us great pleasure to welcome you to the 50th Anniversary of the world’s first heart transplant! On the 3rd December 2017 it will be the 50th anniversary of the world’s first human to human heart transplant performed by Christiaan Barnard and his team in our Department at Groote Schuur Hospital and the University of Cape Town. This was an iconic world event which captured the attention of the public and world media like no other medical advance before it,and continues to be the world’s most publicised medical event of all time. The only other comparable world iconic event of that era, and which similarly caught the attention of the world, was the Apollo landing on the moon 18 months later in July 1969. Apart from our focus on celebrating medical advances, we wish to broaden our scope to include other innovative and courageous developments, which have similarly advanced the scope and horizons of modern human endeavour. We also wish to focus on how the great advances in medicine which were pioneered, developed and commercialized by the various pharmaceutical and medical device companies, can be expanded to reach the underprivileged areas of the world where there is such a burden of cardiovascular disease. Presently the large expense of most of these recent developments preclude their widespread use (or penetration) in the developing economies of the world We would like to thank some of the leading Cardiovascular Device- and Pharmaceutical companies whose CEO’s or senior staff will be joining us in the debate around how modern cardiovascular interventions can be provided to the large areas of the world where there is at present such a dearth of cardiovascular healthcare. -
