Objective: The concept of proportionate and disproportionate functional mitral regurgitation suggests that transcatheter edge-to-edge mitral repair may benefit patients with a smaller left ventricle relative to a higher regurgitant burden.

Assessing emerging causes of mitral regurgitation: atrial functional mitral regurgitation
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 ...

Current Diagnosis and Therapeutic Approach of Functional Mitral Regurgitation [PDF]
Functional mitral regurgitation is characterized by normal structures of the mitral valve and chordae tendinea, but the regurgitation occurs due to geometric changes in the left atrium and left ventricle.

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

Transcatheter Mitral Valve Repair in Patients With Atrial Functional Mitral Regurgitation. [PDF]
BACKGROUND Among patients with severe functional mitral regurgitation (FMR), atrial functional MR (aFMR) represents an underrecognized entity. Data regarding outcomes after mitral valve transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (M-TEER) in aFMR remain scarce.

Recurrent mitral regurgitation after annuloplasty for functional ischemic mitral regurgitation [PDF]
ObjectivesWe sought to characterize the temporal return of mitral regurgitation after annuloplasty for functional ischemic mitral regurgitation; to identify its predictors, particularly with respect to annuloplasty type; and to determine whether ...
