Ask the Heart Doctor: Mitral Valve

Cleveland Clinic heart experts explain mitral valve disease: what regurgitation (leakage) and stenosis (narrowing) are, how they’re found with an ultrasound of the heart and when treatment may be needed. Learn why regular follow-up matters, even if you feel fine, and how today’s treatment options - from minimally invasive surgery to catheter-based procedures - can help you get back to living a full, active life.Learn more about our heart experts:Cardiothoracic surgeon Marc Gillinov, MD - https://cle.clinic/41AjKQkCardiologist Samir Kapadia, MD - https://cle.clinic/4tJiBleCardiologist Rhonda Miyasaka, MD - https://cle.clinic/4ckfUiLCardiothoracic surgeon Per Wierup, MD, PhD - https://cle.clinic/4tS6FhSCardiologist Amar Krishnaswamy, MD - https://cle.clinic/4fbs0MqGet treatment for mitral valve disease. https://my.clevelandclinic.org/services/mitral-and-tricuspid-heart-valve-disease Schedule an appointment at Cleveland Clinic by calling 844.868.4339.
