Barlow's Disease: Mitral Valve Repair with Limited De-calcification
In this video we show an example of a reconstruction of Barlow's valve disease in a patient that has calcification of the annulus. The key steps we'll show are a detachment of the leaflet with a targeted de-calcification of the annulus and then reconstruction of the posterior leaflet and finally ring annuloplasty.
