    INTRODUÇÃO: A plastia valvar mitral é o tratamento de escolha para a insuficiência mitral, porém a literatura é escassa em relação ao comportamento do átrio e ventrículo esquerdos após a plastia mitral sem utilização de anéis protéticos. OBJETIVO: Analisar a morfologia e a função cardíaca de indivíduos submetidos à plastia valvar mitral pela técnica de Duplo Teflon, por meio da ecocardiografia tridimensional. MÉTODOS: Foram incluídos 14 pacientes com insuficiência mitral mixomatosa, submetidos à plastia mitral pela técnica de Duplo Teflon. Treze pacientes encontravam-se em classe III/IV. Os pacientes foram avaliados nos períodos pré-operatório, pós-operatório imediato (POI), 6 meses e 1 ano após a plastia mitral. Foi utilizado teste de análise de variância de medidas repetidas para o estudo estatístico, sendo considerado estatisticamente significante P<0,05. RESULTADOS: A análise dos volumes sistólicos, atrial e ventricular demonstrou redução volumétrica significativa entre POI e 1 ano (P=0,028 e P=0,020, respectivamente). Entre o pré-operatório e 1 ano, houve redução média de 19,9% e 15,4% nos volumes atrial e ventricular, respectivamente. Os volumes diastólicos atrial e ventricular apresentaram redução significativa no POI (P<0,001 e P=0,024, respectivamente), permanecendo estáveis ao longo do estudo. Houve aumento na fração de ejeção do átrio esquerdo após 6 meses (P<0,001), porém não houve variação na função ventricular esquerda. CONCLUSÕES: Os pacientes submetidos à plastia valvar mitral por meio da técnica de Duplo Teflon apresentaram remodelamento reverso do átrio esquerdo e do ventrículo esquerdo. Esta redução nos volumes cavitários esteve associada à melhora da função atrial esquerda durante o estudo.INTRODUCTION: Mitral valve repair is the treatment of choice to correct mitral insufficiency. Although the literature related to left atrial and ventricular behavior after mitral repair without use of prosthetic rings is scarce. OBJECTIVE: To analyze cardiac morphology and function using real time tridimensional echocardiography in individuals submitted to mitral valve repair with Double Teflon technique. METHODS: Were included 14 patients with mixomatous mitral valve insufficiency that were submitted to mitral valve repair with the Double Teflon technique. Of them, 13 patients were in class III/IV. Patients were evaluated in preoperative period, immediate postoperative period, 6 months and 1 year after mitral repair. Statistic analysis was made by repeated measures ANOVA test and was considered statistically significant P < 0.05. RESULTS: The analysis of systolic volumes, atrial and ventricular, demonstrated a significant volumetric reduction between immediate postoperative period and 1 year (P=0.028 and P=0.020, respectively). Between preoperative period and 1 year, there was a mean reduction in atrial and ventricle volumes of 19.9% and 15.4%, respectively. Atrial and ventricle diastolic volumes presented a significant reduction in immediate postoperative period (P <0.001 and P =0.024, respectively), remaining stable during the study. There was an increase in left atrial ejection fraction after 6 months (P<0.001), although there was no significant variation in left ventricle ejection fraction. CONCLUSIONS: Patients submitted to mitral valve repair by the Double Teflon technique demonstrated a left atrial and ventricle reverse remodeling. These reductions were associated with an improvement in left atrial function during the study.Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de São Paulo (FAPESP

    INTRODUÇÃO: Os bons resultados da comissurotomia mitral a céu aberto são bem conhecidos e existe a hipótese de que se poderiam obter melhores resultados em pacientes selecionados pelo escore ecocardiográfico. OBJETIVO: Analisar os resultados tardios da comissurotomia mitral em pacientes selecionados pelo escore ecocardiográfico e identificar variáveis com influência nesses resultados. MÉTODOS: De janeiro de 1990 a agosto de 1994, 50 pacientes com estenose mitral reumática foram submetidos à comissurotomia mitral a céu aberto no Instituto do Coração do Hospital das Clínicas da Faculdade de Medicina da Universidade de São Paulo. Foram incluídos pacientes com idade INTRODUCTION: The good results of open mitral commissurotomy are well known and there is a hypothesis that it could provide better results in patients selected by echocardiographic score. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study is to analyze the late results with open mitral commissurotomy in patients selected by score and to identify variables influencing these results. METHODS: From January 1990 to August 1994, 50 patients were submitted to open mitral commissurotomy due to rheumatic mitral stenosis in Heart Institute of University of Sao Paulo Medical School. Patients with age < 60 years, in functional class II, III or IV (New York Heart Association) and echocardiographic score 9 were included. The mean age was 32.7 ± 8.3 years and 41 patients (82%) were female. The functional class was II in three patients (6%), III in 46 (92%) and IV in one (2%). Forty six patients (92%) were in sinus rhythm and four (8%) were in atrial fibrillation. The mean mitral valve area was 0.9 ± 0.2 cm². RESULTS: There was no hospital mortality. There were two late deaths, one related to valve disease. Actuarial survival was 95.5 ± 3.1 %, freedom from reoperation was 62.3 ± 11,8% and freedom from tromboembolism was 88,2 ± 5,0% in 18 years. There was no endocarditis. The grade of the echocardiographic score had no significant influence on the reoperations in late evolution. CONCLUSION: Open mitral commissurotomy presented excelent long term results in rheumatic patients with low echocardiographic scor
