Mitral regurgitation affects more than 2 million people in the USA. The main causes are classified as degenerative (with valve prolapse) and ischaemic (ie, due to consequences of coronary disease) in developed countries, or rheumatic (in developing countries).

Degenerative mitral regurgitation
Nature Reviews Disease Primers, 2023Degenerative mitral regurgitation is a major threat to public health and affects at least 24 million people worldwide, with an estimated 0.88 million disability-adjusted life years and 34,000 deaths in 2019. Improving access to diagnostic testing and to timely curative therapies such as surgical mitral valve repair will improve the outcomes of many ...

Functional mitral regurgitation
Current Opinion in Cardiology, 2020Purpose of review Functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) is a complex condition in which significant mitral regurgitation coexist with cardiomyopathy and heart failure and carries an increased risk for associated morbidity and mortality.

Degenerative mitral regurgitation
Current Opinion in Cardiology, 2020Purpose of review Degenerative mitral regurgitation (DMR) continues to be an important cause of morbidity and mortality with surgical mitral valve repair remaining the gold standard for the treatment of severe disease. The purpose of this review is to summarize recent advances in the understanding of DMR as well as the progress

Secondary Mitral Regurgitation
New England Journal of Medicine, 2020Whereas primary mitral regurgitation (MR) is due to a structural or degenerative abnormality of the mitral valve (MV) or adjacent structures, secondary or functional MR occurs in the absence of organic MV disease, usually resulting instead from left ventricular (LV) dysfunction.

Chronic severe mitral regurgitation is a surgically correctable disorder. Advances in cardiac surgery (including mitral valve repair and less invasive operations), a low postoperative complication rate, and improved long-term prognosis have reduced the threshold for surgical referral. Choosing the optimal timing for surgery remains the cardinal problem.

Summary: The occurrence of significant mitral regurgitation without the characteristic auscultatory signs, particularly the holosystolic murmur and the third heart sound, is unusual. It becomes of considerable importance when it occurs in combined lesions of the mitral valve, and more so in those areas where the treatment of mitral stenosis is by ...

Ischemic mitral regurgitation is the regurgitation seen with structurally normal valve leaflets that occurs in approximately 20% of patients after myocardial infarction and 56% of patients with congestive heart failure caused by ischemic or nonischemic cardiomyopathy.

Mitral regurgitation is the second most frequent reason for valve surgery. The most important causes of mitral regurgitation are degenerative valve disease (mitral valve prolapse), left ventricular impairment and dilatation (in coronary artery disease or dilated cardiomyopathy), and infective endocarditis.

Functional Mitral Regurgitation
Cardiology in Review, 2010Functional mitral regurgitation (MR) is a common clinical entity which will likely increase in the future due to predicted demographic changes. It is also associated with poor long-term survival. The anatomic structure of the mitral valve apparatus is complex and consists of several components, each of which can be affected by a variety of diseases ...
