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]
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.

As a percutaneous technique for the reduction of mitral regurgitation, the MitraClip system (Abbott Vascular, Abbott Park, IL, USA) for transcatheter edge-to-edge repair of the mitral valve was developed in 1998 and first used in 2003. Its main advantage

Surgical treatment of secondary mitral regurgitation in heart failure: a present-day view
Rationale. Secondary, or functional, mitral regurgitation is the most common complication of heart failure. Dysfunction of one or more mitral valve structures occurs in 39–74% of patients thus complicating the course of the disease and significantly ...

Echocardiographic evaluation of the functional mitral regurgitation after cardiac resynchronization therapy: which is the best approach? [PDF]
A strong association between functional mitral regurgitation severity and all-cause mortality and hospitalization was found in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy and left ventricular systolic dysfunction, with or without an implanted device.

Right Ventricular Dysfunction and Tricuspid Regurgitation in Functional Mitral Regurgitation [PDF]
Abstract Aim The objective of this study was to investigate the prognostic importance of right ventricular dysfunction (RVD) and tricuspid regurgitation (TR) in patients with moderate–severe functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) receiving MitraClip procedure.

Prognosis for Mitral Valve Repair Surgery in Functional Mitral Regurgitation
Purpose: Our aim was to evaluate the development of new significant mitral regurgitation and long-term survival after mitral repair surgery in functional mitral regurgitation.

Treatment of secondary (or functional) mitral regurgitation had traditionally been limited to optimal medical therapy because studies have failed to show a survival benefit with mitral valve surgery for this condition.

Rough-zone suspension with mitral valve replacement for ventricular functional mitral regurgitation
Chordal preservation is recommended in mitral valve replacement for functional mitral regurgitation to preserve left ventricular function. In contrast, papillary muscle suspension toward the anterior mitral annulus can induce left ventricular reverse ...

Adjunctive Techniques for Repair of Ischaemic Mitral Regurgitation
Ischaemic mitral regurgitation is a complex process with debate in the literature as to the optimal treatment pathway. Multiple therapies are available to alleviate mitral regurgitation including medical management, transcatheter edge-to-edge repair ...
