摘要
The mitral valve is a complex, dynamic and functional apparatus that can be altered by a wide range of disorders leading to stenosis or regurgitation. Surgical management of mitral valve disease may be difficult. Planned intervention may not always be feasible when the surgeon is faced with complex pathology that cannot be assessed fully by conventional 2D echocardiography. Transthoracic and transesophageal 3D echocardiography can provide a more reliable functional and anatomical assessment of the different valve components and evaluation of its geometry, which can aid the surgeon in planning a more suitable surgical intervention and improve outcomes. Although 3D echocardiography is a new technology, it has proven to be an important modality for the accurate assessment of valvular heart disease and in the future, it promises to be an essential part in the routine assessment of cardiovascular patients.
