1 Mitral commissurotomy, a technique outdated
Mitral commissurotomy, a technique outdated? long-term follow-up over a period of 35 years  Christian Detter, MD, Teddy Fischlein, MD, Christina Feldmeier, MD, Georg Nollert, MD, Hermann Reichenspurner, MD, PhD, Bruno Reichart, MD  The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  Volume 68, Issue 6, Pages (December 1999) DOI: /S (99)

2 Fig 1 Long-term survival (Kaplan-Meier) of patients after closed (crosses; group A) and open commissurotomy (squares; group B). Numbers below the curve indicate the numbers of patients at risk. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (99) )

3 Fig 2 Survival curves (Kaplan-Meier) according to log-rank univariate analysis of significant variables. (A) The effect of preoperative New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional class (p = 0.001); (B) preoperative atrial fibrillation (p < ); (C) additional preoperative mitral regurgitation (p = 0.002); and (D) presence of leaflet calcification (p < 0.05) on survival rate. Numbers below the curve indicate the numbers of patients at risk. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (99) )

4 Fig 3 Freedom from reoperation (Kaplan-Meier) of patients after closed (crosses; group A) and open commissurotomy (squares; group B). Numbers below the curve indicate the numbers of patients at risk. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (99) )
