Outcomes of Mitral Valve Surgery for Atrial Functional Mitral Regurgitation vs Ventricular Functional Mitral Regurgitation. [PDF]

Eur J Cardiothorac Surg
Abstract Objectives Atrial functional mitral regurgitation (AFMR) is a unique category of functional mitral regurgitation (FMR), and surgical outcomes compared to traditional ventricular FMR (VFMR) are limited. This study compared long-term outcomes of mitral valve surgery (MVS) for patients with AFMR

Assessing emerging causes of mitral regurgitation: atrial functional mitral regurgitation

Journal of International Medical Research
Functional or secondary mitral regurgitation is linked to increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. From a mechanical perspective, secondary mitral regurgitation occurs due to an imbalance between the forces that tether the mitral leaflets and ...

The echocardiographic assessment of functional mitral regurgitation [PDF]

European Journal of Echocardiography, 2010
Functional mitral regurgitation (MR) is common, clinically important, and mechanistically complex. Its assessment by echocardiography can be challenging, and particular care is needed in the quantification of severity. Echocardiographers need to be aware of the potential limitations of flow convergence and vena contracta methods in assessing severity ...

Echocardiographic evaluation of mitral geometry in functional mitral regurgitation [PDF]

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2008
Objectives We sought to evaluate the geometric changes of the mitral leaflets, local and global LV remodeling in patients with left ventricular dysfunction and varying degrees of Functional mitral regurgitation (FMR).

A case of progressive dyspnea: Atrial septal device-related functional mitral regurgitation after myocardial infarction [PDF]

Journal of Cardiovascular and Thoracic Research, 2021
Transcatheter device closure is a common treatment option of atrial septal defect. Mitral regurgitation has been reported with comorbid mitral valve prolapse and atrial septal defect.

Functional mitral regurgitation [PDF]

Indian Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2019
Dr. O.P. Yadava, Editor-in-Chief, IJTC, and Dr. J.L. Pomar, Former President, EACTS, discuss issues related to secondary mitral regurgitation (MR). Though it is considered a ventricular disease, mitral valve leaflets are not entirely normal. Alignment of subvalvular apparatus plays a more dominant role than annular dilatation. Early repair is preferred.

Left ventricular apical aneurysm resection and mitral valve replacement for apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

Clinical Case Reports, 2023
Key clinical message Left ventricular apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with an apical aneurysm carries a risk of thrombosis and can also lead to atrial fibrillation and functional mitral regurgitation.

Midterm results of mitral valve repair for atrial functional mitral regurgitation: a retrospective study

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2020
Background Annular dilation by left atrial remodeling is considered the main cause of atrial function mitral regurgitation. Although acceptable outcomes have been obtained using mitral ring annuloplasty alone for atrial functional mitral regurgitation ...
