Extractions: Approximately 70,000 heart valve replacement procedures are performed annually in the United States for conditions ranging from Mitral Valve Stenosis resulting from rheumatic fever, Mitral Regurgitation from "floppy" valves, and Calcified Aortic Stenosis encountered in large numbers of aging patients, particularly elderly women. Mitral valve stenosis occurs predominantly in women. The reasons for this are unknown but it has been documented in virtually every clinical series about the disease since the turn of the century. The incidence of rheumatic disease has markedly decreased in the United States due to better prophylaxis treatment of streptococcal infections with the use of antibiotics. Paradoxically, the treatment of mitral valve stenosis may be increasing. The reasons are related to immigration and the incidence of rheumatic heart disease in third-world countries. Immigrants from southeast Asia and South and Central America currently comprise a large number of patients in the United States with rheumatic heart disease. Mitral valve regurgitation (also referred to as mitral valve prolapse or MVP) follows a very different path for a woman versus a man. The condition of mitral valve prolapse is commonly diagnosed in young females yet the incidence in elderly women decreases markedly. Conversely, there is a fairly consistent incidence of mitral prolapse in the male population at both young and old age. Recent studies have indicated that, for men, the incidence of mitral prolapse requiring surgical intervention is higher than for women and it increases with age (Wilcken DEL, HickeyAJ Liftime: Risk for patients with mitral valve prolapse of developing severe valve regurgitation requiring surgery.

Extractions: The Center for Heart Valve Disease has a multidisciplinary team to diagnose and treat aortic valve disease. The team includes cardiac surgeons, cardiologists and cardiac nurses with specialized training and experience with valvular disease. The Center uses sophisticated echocardiography and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging techniques to assess both the aortic valve and overall heart function to accurately qualify and quantify the extent of aortic valve disease so that optimal strategies for management can be formulated.

Extractions: Each benefit plan defines which services are covered, which are excluded, and which are subject to dollar caps or other limits. Members and their providers will need to consult the member's benefit plan to determine if there are any exclusions or other benefit limitations applicable to this service or supply. The conclusion that a particular service or supply is medically necessary does not constitute a representation or warranty that this service or supply is covered (i.e., will be paid for by Aetna) for a particular member. The member's benefit plan determines coverage. Some plans exclude coverage for services or supplies that Aetna considers medically necessary. If there is a discrepancy between this policy and a member's plan of benefits, the benefits plan will govern. In addition, coverage may be mandated by applicable legal requirements of a State, the Federal government or CMS for Medicare and Medicaid members.

Extractions: Program Main The Congenital Heart Program, Albany Medical Center Ross Procedure Sir Donald Ross in England first described the Ross procedure in 1966. Since that time, the Ross procedure has been performed thousands of times in adult and pediatric patients worldwide with excellent results. The Ross procedure is generally performed for young adults and children with aortic valve disease. The aortic valve may require replacement due to aortic valve stenosis (narrowing) or aortic valve incompetence (leaking). The causes of aortic valve failure are many. The causes include endocarditis (infection of the valve) or other infections, such as rheumatic fever. Congenital (present from birth) defects, such as a bicuspid aortic valve where the valve has two leaflets rather than the normal three, is another cause of aortic valve disease. The Ross procedure is one of many options for the treatment of aortic valve disease. Your cardiologist and surgeon will discuss with you the best procedure for you or your child. Each option has its own strengths and weaknesses. The one to chose is individualized to each patient depending on lifestyle, age, associated medical conditions, and a number of other factors. The Ross procedure involves using the patient's own pulmonary valve as a replacement for his or her diseased aortic valve (see ILLUSTRATION). During the procedure, the patient's pulmonary valve is harvested and then sewn into the aortic position after removing the diseased aortic valve. The pulmonary valve is used because it is a similar size to the aortic valve, it has the potential to grow when used in children (which artificial valves cannot do), and it is well suited to the high pressures in the aorta. A homograft (human cadaver) valve is then used to replace the patient's valve in the lower pressure pulmonary artery system.

Extractions: AORTIC VALVE DISEASE HEART DEFECT HEART DISEASE MUTATIONS NOTCH1 GENE Contact Information Available for logged-in reporters only Description By studying five generations of a Dallas family, UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers have discovered that a mutation in a key gene causes aortic valve disease, a common heart birth defect as well as a major contributor to adult heart disease. In the study, available in the online edition of the journal Nature , researchers scanned the DNA of 11 members of a family that was affected with aortic heart disease. The patients ranged from children with severe narrowing of the aortic valve to 50- and 60-year-olds who had such severe calcium buildup on their heart valves that they required replacement valves. The UT Southwestern researchers found that all the relatives with some manifestation of aortic valve disease had a mutation in a gene called NOTCH1.
