The Edwards03 GeoFormTh*Annuloplasty Ring is indicated for the correction of mitral valve insufficiency where the lesions are not so severe as to require total valve replacement.
The decision to undertake valvuloplasty can be made only after visual analysis of the lesion present. The most favorable conditions for valvuloplasty using an annuloplasty ring are a combination of a distended natural valve ring associated with supple valve cusps and normal chordae tendineae.
The remodeling valvuloplasty technique with a prosthetic ring may be used in all acquired or congenital mitral insufficiencies with dilatation and deformation of the fibrous mitral annulus.
For Type I mitral insufficiencies with no subvalvular lesions and normal valvular movements, this ring technique used alone is sufficient. However, the ring technique must be associated with mitral valvuloplasty repair in Type II insufficiencies with a prolapsed valve due to elongation or rupture of the chordae tendineae and in Type III insufficiencies with limitation of valvular movements due to fusion of the commissures or chordae tendineae, or chordal hypertrophy.
Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
