Characterization of Mitral Valve Anterior Leaflet Perfusion Patterns
The Journal of Heart Valve Disease, 09/14/09
Swanson JC et al. – The ovine AML is perfused by vessels that run through the SC and annulus simultaneously, and then create a communicating arcade in the leaflet. These vessels originate from the mid– and distal portions of the LCx. A loss of perfusion as a result of microvascular disease could have adverse implications. Derangements in the extensive vascular component of the mitral valve could be an important contributing factor to valve disease.
