The Systolic Anterior Motion After Mitral Valve Repair: A Narrative Review of Current Therapeutic Algorithms in the Operating Room

open access: yesHealth Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Systolic anterior motion (SAM) represents the displacement of the anterior mitral leaflet during ventricular systole toward the interventricular septum, causing an obstruction of the outflow tract. Most of the published data regards the primary SAM that is associated with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. This review was focused

Treatment of mitral regurgitation

open access: yesMonaldi Archives for Chest Disease, 2017
In the elderly mitral regurgitation is very frequent and surgical correction of mitral regurgitation (MR) has often a high operative risk, consequently, over the years, different percutaneous transcatheter techniques have been developed as a valid ...

Three‐Dimensional Transesophageal Echocardiographic Vena Contracta Area for Grading Mitral Regurgitation: Severity Cut‐offs From a Prospective Tunisian Cohort

open access: yesEchocardiography, Volume 43, Issue 9, September 2026.
Three‐dimensional vena contracta area (VCA) measured by transoesophageal echocardiography enables precise accurate quantification of mitral regurgitation severity. In a Tunisian cohort, 3D VCA showed strong correlations with conventional 2D indices and excellent diagnostic performance for severe MR, supporting its use particularly in rheumatic mitral ...

Degenerative mitral valve regurgitation: best practice revolution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Degenerative mitral valve disease often leads to leaflet prolapse due to chordal elongation or rupture, and resulting in mitral valve regurgitation. Guideline referral for surgical intervention centres primarily on symptoms and ventricular dysfunction ...

Unveiling New Insights: Reinterpreting DES Mutation, p.Arg383His, Through a Study of an Iranian Family With Isolated Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy, Implication for Phenotype–Genotype Correlation Analysis

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Desmin, a crucial intermediate filament in muscle cells, maintains structural integrity in cardiac muscle and provides stability to striated muscle cells. Mutations in the DES gene lead to desminopathies, causing diverse cardiac and skeletal myopathies.

Isolated undersized mitral annuloplasty for functional mitral regurgitation in non-ischemic dilated cardiomyopathy: reconsideration of the relationship between preoperative coaptation depth and persistent mitral regurgitation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
A preoperative coaptation depth (CD) >or=11 mm is apparently a predictive factor for persistent mitral regurgitation (MR) after undersized mitral annuloplasty for functional MR.

Mitral regurgitation

open access: yes, 2018
Mitral regurgitation is the second most frequent indication for valve surgery in Europe. Echocardiography is essential to assess the aetiology of mitral regurgitation, as well as valve anatomy and function. An integrative approach is needed to assess the

Evidence‐Based Nursing Management During Mavacamten Therapy in an 89‐Year‐Old Patient With Symptomatic Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy: A Case Report

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT In older patients receiving mavacamten, a reduction in NT‐proBNP levels may coexist with persistent severe LVOTO. Nurses should interpret this biomarker–echocardiography discordance as a safety signal and maintain structured cardiovascular surveillance rather than assuming treatment success based solely on biomarker improvement.
