Justification for Anti-Anatomic Positioning of Bileaflet Mechanical Mitral Valves

2024-01-31

Abstract excerpt

In the early 1980s, implantation of bileaflet mechanical mitral valves (MMVs) in the anatomical plane was found to be associated with incomplete closure of the posterior leaflet, resulting in a higher incidence of valve thrombosis. This phenomenon, coined as the “lazy” leaflet, was avoided with anti-anatomical orientation. This historical observation helped standardize the implantation technique, but variability i...
