Pathogenesis of ischemic mitral insufficiency
We developed a new animal model of ischemic mitral insufficiency in sheep and used it to test the hypothesis that the combination of posterior papillary muscle infarction and left ventricular dilatation was required to produce mitral regurgitation after acute inferior myocardial infarction of moderate size.

Surgical Repair of Ischemic Mitral Insufficiency in Combination with Left Ventricle Plasty
Chronic ischemic mitral regurgitation is a frequent and severe complication after myocardial infarction. Its pathophysiological mechanisms explain the left ventricle remodeling, induce the papillary muscles displacement and change the angle of ...

Sudden cardiac death in patients with ischemic heart failure undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting results from the STICH randomized clinical trial (Surgical Treatment for Ischemic Heart Failure) [PDF]
Background—The risk of sudden cardiac death (SCD) in patients with heart failure following CABG has not been examined in a contemporary clinical trial of surgical revascularization. This analysis describes the incidence, timing and clinical predictors of

End stage cardiomyopathy and secondary mitral insufficiency: surgical alternative with prostesis implant and left ventricular remodelling [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: To present a new surgical approach that consists of the implantation of a mitral prosthesis smaller than the annulus with traction of the papillary muscles to reduce the sphericalness of the left ventricle.
