ABSTRACT Background Advanced heart failure (HF) remains a clinical challenge, and mitral transcatheter edge‐to‐edge repair (M‐TEER) has emerged as a potential bridging strategy. Aims To describe the clinical outcomes of M‐TEER in a single‐center cohort of patients with advanced HF and to identify anatomical and clinical features potentially associated ...

Towards comprehensive assessment of mitral regurgitation using cardiovascular magnetic resonance
Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) is increasingly used to assess patients with mitral regurgitation. Its advantages include quantitative determination of ventricular volumes and function and the mitral regurgitant fraction, and in ischemic mitral ...

Functional Ischemic Mitral Regurgitation [PDF]
Ischemic cardiomyopathy is the most common cause of heart failure in the United States.1 This advanced form of coronary artery disease is marked by diffuse myocardial damage, left ventricular remodeling, and often functional ischemic mitral regurgitation (MR).2 Whether moderate functional ischemic MR in patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy should be ...

Abstract Wild‐type transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTRwt‐CM) is a progressive and infiltrative cardiac disorder that may cause fatal consequences if left untreated. The estimated survival time from diagnosis is approximately 3–6 years. Because of the non‐specificity of initial symptom manifestation and insufficient awareness among treating ...

Minimally Invasive Mitral Valve Repair and Coronary Artery Bypass Graft by a Periareolar Approach
Use of coronary artery bypass for mitral valve repair in ischemic mitral regurgitation remains controversial. We present a case of a 52-year-old man with significant ischemic mitral regurgitation and coronary artery disease who underwent mitral valve ...
