Three-Dimensional Modeling of Surgically Implanted Stent-Based Valves in the Mitral Position in Children.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

In children with a mitral annulus too small to accommodate traditional prostheses, surgical implantation of stent-based valves is a promising option. However no reliable preoperative methods exist to guide patient selection, device sizing, and positioning. We describe a novel methodology to visualize and quantify device fit in 3-dimensional echocardiogram (3DE)-derived heart models.

Description

Heart models were created from existing preoperative 3DEs using custom software. Valve models were virtually implanted into the models, and both device fit and left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) area were quantified.

Evaluation

The 3DEs of 3 patients who underwent Melody valve placement in the mitral position were retrospectively modeled: 1 with LVOT obstruction, 1 with perivalvar leak, and 1 without complications. In all cases 2-dimensional measurements underestimated 3D annular dimensions, and the patient with clinical LVOT obstruction had the lowest predicted LVOT area-to-aortic area ratio (0.5).

Conclusions

3DE-based preoperative modeling of surgical implantation of stent-based valves in the mitral position may improve quantification of mitral valve dimensions and inform risk stratification for potential LVOT obstruction.

Hypo-attenuated leaflet thickening in surgically-implanted mitral bioprosthesis.

Project description:BackgroundHypo-attenuated leaflet thickening (HALT) in bioprosthetic aortic valve has been studied, but its equivalent in bioprosthetic mitral valve (bMV) remains uncharacterized. We sought to identify the prevalence, hemodynamic characteristics, and significance of anticoagulation therapy in bMV HALT.MethodsA single-center cross-sectional study of 53 consecutive patients who underwent mitral valve replacement (MVR) with bMV between 2007 and 2017 was conducted. Cardiac-gated contrasted CT scans were obtained. Anticoagulant and antiplatelet therapy use were ascertained at the time of hospital discharge and CT scanning. Patient characteristics, postoperative stroke, and hemodynamic profile by echocardiogram were obtained to descriptively characterize the prevalence and characteristics associated with bMV HALT.ResultsThree patients (5.7%) were found to have a HALT on bMV. The mean time from index MVR to CT scan was 3.4 ± 0.8 years in HALT cohort and 3.4 ± 2.7 years in non-HALT cohort. Fifty patients (94.3%) were discharged on warfarin, and 37 patients (69.8%) were on warfarin at the time of CT scans. One patient with HALT was on therapeutic warfarin at the time of the CT scan that identified HALT. All three patients were asymptomatic at the time of CT scan. In patients with HALT, mean transmitral pressure gradient were 8, 5, and 2.7 mmHg, all with trivial or mild mitral regurgitation.ConclusionsIn this study, the prevalence of HALT was low at 5.7%, all presenting without symptoms. One patient presented with HALT while on therapeutic oral anticoagulation, which may suggest thrombotic etiology may not adequately explain HALT.

Mapping of the myxomatous mitral valve: The three-dimensional extension of mitral annular disjunction in surgically repaired mitral prolapse.

Project description:ObjectivesThis study aimed to describe the heterogeneous extension of mitral annular disjunction (MAD) and assess the hypotesis that different phenotypes of disjunction are not associated with increased surgical challenges.BackgroundMitral regurgitation (MR) is the most common end-stage scenario of degenerative mitral valve disease (DMVD). Few data exist on the three-dimensional extension and geometry of MAD, as well as for its role in valvular dynamic and coaptation.MethodsA total of 85 consecutive subjects, who underwent elective mitral valve repair (MVR) for MMVD at our Institution between November 2019 and October 2021, were studied retrospectively. The extension and geometry of MAD was assessed using the digitally stored volumetric datasets of real-time 3D transesophageal echocardiography (TEE). Annular phenotypes and surgical repair techniques were analyzed.ResultsMitral annular disjunction was diagnosed in 50 out of 85 patients (59%) with Barlow disease (BD). A detailed analysis of MAD extension was conducted on 33 patients. Two pattern of disjunction were identified: a bimodal shape was highlighted in 21 patients, while a more uniform distribution of the disjuncted annulus was observed in 12 patients. The bimodal pattern was characterized by lower disjunction distance (DD) at the 140°-220° arch (3.6 ± 2.2 mm), while a more regular DD was measured in the remaining patients. All patients successfully underwent MVR. Triangular leaflet resection was performed in 58% of the cases, neochordae implantation in 9%, and notably a 27% received an isolated annuloplasty.ConclusionRather than a binary feature, MAD should be taken into account in its complex and heterogeneous morphology, where two major phenotypes can be identified. Despite its anatomical complexity, MAD was not associated with an increased surgical challenge; conversely a peculiar subgroup of patient was successfully treated with an isolated annuloplasty.

Modeling the Myxomatous Mitral Valve With Three-Dimensional Echocardiography.

Project description:Degenerative mitral valve disease is associated with variable and complex defects in valve morphology. Three-dimensional echocardiography (3DE) has shown promise in aiding preoperative planning for patients with this disease but to date has not been as transformative as initially predicted. The clinical usefulness of 3DE has been limited by the laborious methods currently required to extract quantitative data from the images.To maximize the utility of 3DE for preoperative valve evaluation, this work describes an automated 3DE image analysis method for generating models of the mitral valve that are well suited for both qualitative and quantitative assessment. The method is unique in that it captures detailed alterations in mitral leaflet and annular morphology and produces image-derived models with locally varying leaflet thickness. The method is evaluated on midsystolic transesophageal 3DE images acquired from 22 subjects with myxomatous degeneration and from 22 subjects with normal mitral valve morphology.Relative to manual image analysis, the automated method accurately represents both normal and complex leaflet geometries with a mean boundary displacement error on the order of one image voxel. A detailed quantitative analysis of the valves is presented and reveals statistically significant differences between normal and myxomatous valves with respect to numerous aspects of annular and leaflet geometry.This work demonstrates a successful methodology for the relatively rapid quantitative description of the complex mitral valve distortions associated with myxomatous degeneration. The methodology has the potential to significantly improve surgical planning for patients with complex mitral valve disease.

Three dimensional modeling of atrioventricular valves provides predictive guides for optimal choice of prosthesis.

Project description:Inaccuracies in intraoperative and preoperative measurements and estimations may lead to adverse outcomes such as patient-prosthesis mismatch. We aim to measure the relation between different dimensions of the atrioventricular valve complex in explanted porcine heart models. After a detailed physical morphology study, a cast of the explanted heart models was made using silicon-based materials. Digital models were obtained from three-dimensional scanning of the casts, showing the measured annulopapillary distance was 2.50 ± 0.18 cm, and 2.75 ± 0.36 cm for anterior and posterior papillary muscles of left ventricle, respectively. There was a significant linear association between the mitral annular circumference to anterior-posterior distance (p = 0.003, 95% CI 0.78-3.06), mitral annular circumference to interpapillary distance (p = 0.009, 95% CI 0.38-2.20), anterior-posterior distance to interpapillary distance (p = 0.02, 95% CI 0.10-0.78). Anterior-posterior distance appeared to be the most important predictor of mitral annular circumference compared to other measured distances. The mean length of the perpendicular distance of the tricuspid annulus, a, was 2.65 ± 0.54 cm; b was 1.77 ± 0.60 cm, and c was 3.06 ± 0.55 cm. Distance c was the most significant predictor for tricuspid annular circumference (p = 0.006, 95% CI 0.28-2.84). The anterior-posterior distance measured by three-dimensional scanning can safely be used to predict the annular circumference of the mitral valve. For the tricuspid valve, the strongest predictor for the circumference is the c-distance. Other measurements made from the positively correlated parameters may be extrapolated to their respective correlated parameters. They can aid surgeons in selecting the optimal prosthesis for the patients and improve procedural planning.

Investigation of failure modes of explanted porcine valves in the mitral position.

Project description:BackgroundPorcine valves are used for mitral valve replacement, but the limited long-term durability has restricted the application in younger patients. Degenerated porcine mitral valves were explanted to analyze the failure modes and damage characteristics.MethodsTwelve porcine valves were explanted via secondary mitral valve replacement surgery. Microcomputed tomography scanning, morphological and pathological examinations were performed to classify the cusp tears, calcification, and pannus formation. The causes of valve deterioration were subsequently analyzed.ResultsThe mean age at first implantation was 45.42±19.58 years (range, 11-64 years). The mean duration of implantation was 9.39±4.14 years (range, 4.25-18.75 years). The indications for first surgery were rheumatic heart disease in 8 patients (66.67%), infective endocarditis in 2 patients (16.67%), degenerative valvular disease in one patient (8.33%), and congenital heart disease in one patient (8.33%). Type I cusp tears and commissural dehiscence that occurred near the stent post position were found in 6 (50%) and 5 (41.67%) valves, respectively. Calcification was detected in 6 (50%) cases, and pannus was found in most valves (91.67%).ConclusionsLeaflet damage occurred near the stent posts area was the main failure mode of porcine mitral valves in this study. Patients who undergo the first surgery at younger age, the higher prevalence rate of rheumatic heart disease, the structure of bioprosthetic porcine valve, and left ventricular stresses could be considered as the main factors causing valve deterioration.

Three-Dimensional Mitral Valve Morphology in Children and Young Adults With Marfan Syndrome.

Project description:BackgroundMitral valve (MV) prolapse is common in children with Marfan syndrome (MFS) and is associated with varying degrees of mitral regurgitation (MR). However, the three-dimensional (3D) morphology of the MV in children with MFS and its relation to the degree of MR are not known. The goals of this study were to describe the 3D morphology of the MV in children with MFS and to compare it to that in normal children.MethodsThree-dimensional transthoracic echocardiography was performed in 27 patients (3-21 years of age) meeting the revised Ghent criteria for MFS and 27 normal children matched by age (±1 year). The 3D geometry of the MV apparatus in midsystole was measured, and its association with clinical and two-dimensional echocardiographic parameters was examined.ResultsCompared with age-matched control subjects, children with MFS had larger 3D annular areas (P < .02), smaller annular height/commissural width ratios (P < .001), greater billow volumes (P < .001), and smaller tenting heights, areas, and volumes (P < .001 for all). In multivariate modeling, larger leaflet billow volume in MFS was strongly associated with moderate or greater MR (P < .01). Intra- and interuser variability of 3D metrics was acceptable.ConclusionsChildren with MFS have flatter and more dilated MV annuli, greater billow volumes, and smaller tenting heights compared with normal control subjects. Larger billow volume is associated with MR. Three-dimensional MV quantification may contribute to the identification of patients with MFS and other connective tissue disorders. Further study of 3D MV geometry and its relation to the clinical progression of MV disease is warranted in this vulnerable population.

Three-dimensional extent of flow stagnation in transcatheter heart valves.

Project description:The recent unexpected discovery of thrombosis in transcatheter heart valves (THVs) has led to increased concerns of long-term valve durability. Based on the clinical evidence combined with Virchow's triad, the primary hypothesis is that low-velocity blood flow around the valve could be a primary cause for thrombosis. However, due to limited optical access in such unsteady three-dimensional biomedical flows, measurements are challenging. In this study, for the first time, we employ a novel single camera volumetric velocimetry technique to investigate unsteady three-dimensional cardiovascular flows. Validation of the novel volumetric velocimetry technique with standard planar particle image velocimetry (PIV) technique demonstrated the feasibility of adopting this new technique to investigate biomedical flows. This technique was used to quantify the three-dimensional velocity field in the vicinity of a validated, custom developed, transparent THV in a bench-top pulsatile flow loop. Large volumetric regions of flow stagnation were observed in the neo-sinus throughout the cardiac cycle, with stagnation defined as a velocity magnitude lower than 0.05 m s-1. The volumetric scalar viscous shear stress quantified via the three-dimensional shear stress tensor was within the range of low shear-inducing thrombosis observed in the literature. Such high-fidelity volumetric quantitative data and novel imaging techniques used to obtain it will enable fundamental investigation of heart valve thrombosis in addition to providing a reliable and robust database for validation of computational tools.

Patient-specific airway stent using three-dimensional printing: a review.

Project description:The primary function of an airway stent is to reestablish patency, impeding restenosis, supporting the tracheobronchial wall, or occluding fistulas. But stent-related complications are prevalent and can have devastating consequences. For this reason, stents are considered a last resort when there are no alternatives in treatment. Additionally, commercially available airway stents often poorly fit patients with complex airways, and they can cause various complications. At the end of the 20th century, three-dimensional (3D) printing technology was created. It has been transformative in healthcare and has been used in several applications. One of its first utilizations was the anatomical modeling of body structures that helps preoperative planning. In respiratory medicine, this technology has been essentially used in central airway diseases to produce 3D airway models and to create airway splints and prostheses. In the last decade, it has led to a transformation and allowed progress in personalized medicine, making patient-specific stents for individuals with complex airway problems. A patient-specific stent using 3D printing may minimize complications, improve quality of life, and reduce the need for repeated procedures. This review describes the recent advances in 3D printing technology, its use for developing airway prostheses to treat complex airway diseases, and the current evidence that supports its use.
