Echocardiographic changes in patients with a cylinder mitral valve replacement: Preliminary analysis

Aims Cylinder mitral valve construct (cMVC) is new technique for replacing the mitral valve compared to more traditional mitral valve replacement (MVR) procedures. Goal of this study was to describe echocardiographic changes over time in patients undergoing a cMVC.
