mitral valve prolapse



excessive retrograde movement of one or both mitral valve leaflets into the left atrium during left ventricular systole, often allowing mitral regurgitation; responsible for the click-murmur of Barlow syndrome, and rarely may be due to rheumatic carditis, a connective tissue disorder such as Marfan syndrome, or ruptured chorda tendinea ("flail mitral leaflet").

Neurosurg help, "Sa-FEE-sa" valve
Subject: Neurosurg help, "Sa-FEE-sa" valve

Procedure is:

ENDOSCOPIC BIOPSY OF THIRD VENTRICULAR TUMOR WITH FENESTRATION OF SEPTUM PELLUCIDUM AND CREATION OF A VENTRICULOPERITONEAL SHUNT.


SSentence:

A 0020 shunt assist and a _____ valve set to 110 was secured with 2-0 Ethibond sutures, and then it was brought down into the subgaleal compartment.

Not sure about the proper representation of "0020" shunt assist, either.

Same procedure:

The "Me-TOCK-a" holder was used, and then the first thing we did was make a curvilinear right frontal scalp incision with the midportion of the skin incision at the midline and the trajectory of the skin incision such that it could be extended to do a right frontoparietal craniotomy should this have to be done in the future.

Have checked Stedman's Med/Surg words, Neurosurg words, Google using wildcards, framing words, etc., cannot work my way to these. Thank you for any help.
