MitraClip for Secondary Mitral Regurgitation
JACC: Case Reports, 2021 We describe the case of an 83-year-old man with a history of ischemic cardiomyopathy and severe secondary mitral regurgitation. This case highlights the role of transcatheter edge-to-edge repair with the MitraClip in the management of symptomatic ...

Regurgitation Hemodynamics Alone Cause Mitral Valve Remodeling Characteristic of Clinical Disease States In Vitro [PDF]
, 2015 Mitral valve regurgitation is a challenging clinical condition that is frequent, highly varied, and poorly understood. While the causes of mitral regurgitation are multifactorial, how the hemodynamics of regurgitation impact valve tissue remodeling is an

Parameters of the mitral apparatus in patients with ischemic and nonischemic dilated cardiomyopathy
Journal of International Medical Research, 2023 The mitral valve apparatus is a complex structure consisting of several coordinating components: the annulus , two leaflets, the chordae tendineae, and the papillary muscles. Due to the intricate interplay between the mitral valve and the left ventricle,

Recurrent mitral regurgitation after annuloplasty for functional ischemic mitral regurgitation [PDF]
The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2004 We 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 annuloplasty type influences survival.From April 1985 through November 2002, 585 patients underwent annuloplasty alone
