Functional mitral regurgitation [PDF]
Dr. O.P. Yadava, Editor-in-Chief, IJTC, and Dr. J.L. Pomar, Former President, EACTS, discuss issues related to secondary mitral regurgitation (MR). Though it is considered a ventricular disease, mitral valve leaflets are not entirely normal. Alignment of subvalvular apparatus plays a more dominant role than annular dilatation. Early repair is preferred.

Midterm Outcomes of Pediatric Mitral Valvuloplasty for Moderate to Severe Mitral Valve Regurgitation and Associated Risk Factors for Postoperative Deterioration [PDF]
Background: Mitral valvuloplasty is considered the best treatment for pediatric mitral valve regurgitation. The objective of this analysis was to identify risk factors for postoperative mitral valve regurgitation progression and evaluate valvuloplasty ...

Advances in transcatheter mitral and tricuspid therapies
Background While rheumatic mitral stenosis has been effectively treated percutaneously for more than 20 years, mitral and tricuspid regurgitation treatment appear as a contemporary unmet need.

Early- and Long-Term Outcomes of Mitral Valve Repair in a Low-Volume Centre in the Caribbean
Introduction: This study examines early- and long-term outcomes of mitral valve repairs in a low-volume cardiac surgery centre in the Caribbean. Methods: Ninety-six consecutive patients underwent mitral valve repair from April 2009 to December 2018 ...

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 ...
