If you have a leaky mitral valve caused by Barlow’s disease, you may have been told that it cannot be repaired and that replacement is your only option. This is no longer true. A new repair technique has been developed, and it is far superior to older repair techniques or valve replacement. “The procedure allows us to repair the valve with a 98 to 99% chance of success,” says heart surgeon Per Wierup, MD. “We do it minimally invasively with a robot. ” More than a decade ago, Dr. Wierup began exploring ways valvular heart disease symptoms to improve on a European repair technique for Barlow’s disease. The procedure he developed is now the standard of care for Barlow’s mitral valve repair at Cleveland Clinic. Heart valves open and close to keep blood moving in one direction. The mitral valve controls blood flow between the left atrium, which accepts freshly oxygenated blood from the lungs, and the left ventricle, which pumps blood into the body. When the two leaflets of a mitral valve fail to close tightly between beats (“coapt”), blood leaks backwards, and the body does not receive sufficient oxygen.
