Fig 2 Explanted bioprosthetic mitral valve (MV). (A) Ventricular surface. A prominent crease and marked retraction was noted on L2. A less prominent crease was noted on L1. (B) Atrial surface. Creases were noted on 2 leaflets, which were more prominent on L2 than on L1. No typical suture looping mark was evident. Leaflets were discolored from dehydration during transfer to manufacturer for evaluation. (L1, L2, L3 = leaflets 1, 2, and 3, respectively; C1, C2, C3 = commissures 1, 2, and 3, respectively.)

Color Doppler image showing an eccentric transvalvular regurgitant jet (yellow arrow). (B) Explanted bioprosthesis showing folding and retraction of 1 leaflet (arrow). There was no evidence of suture looping. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery , e317-e319DOI: ( /j.athoracsur ) Copyright © 2017 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions
