Global Longitudinal Strain Predicts Survival and Left Ventricular Function After Mitral Valve Surgery: A Meta-analysis – PubMed
The timing for surgical treatment in patients with primary organic severe mitral valve regurgitation and preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) systolic is a challenge since it depends upon LV end systolic dimension and LVEF which may be late markers of LV dysfunction. Echocardiography …
