Quantitation of Mitral Regurgitation
Seminars in Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2011Mitral regurgitation (MR) is the most frequent valve disease. Nevertheless, evaluation of MR severity is difficult because standard color flow imaging is plagued by considerable pitfalls. Modern surgical indications in asymptomatic patients require precise assessment of MR severity.

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.

MitraClip Therapy for Mitral Regurgitation
Interventional Cardiology Clinics, 2016Therapy for mitral regurgitation (MR) has been synonymous with mitral valve surgery. Operative approaches for degenerative MR repair have been associated with excellent results, with durable long term outcomes. Surgery for functional MR has been less successful.

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.

Mitral regurgitation is the second most frequent indication for valve surgery in Europe. Echocardiography is essential to assess the aetiology of mitral regurgitation, as well as valve anatomy and function. An integrative approach is needed to assess the severity of mitral regurgitation.

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 ...

Evaluation of Mitral Regurgitation
Seminars in Cardiothoracic and Vascular Anesthesia, 2006Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) provides high-resolution images of the mitral valve apparatus, permitting detailed evaluation of its structure and function. Mitral valve evaluation is invaluable during mitral valve repair surgery, providing insight into the mechanism of valve dysfunction and formulation of a plan for repair.
