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).

Aortic regurgitation (AR) is a common form of valvular disease which is characterized by reflux of blood from the aorta into the left ventricle (LV) during diastole. AR results from various etiologies, affecting the aortic valve cusps or the aortic root.

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.

Traumatic aortic regurgitation
The American Journal of Cardiology, 1962Abstract A patient is reported who sustained myocardial contusion with complete heart block, pericardial effusion and rupture of the aortic valve following blunt chest trauma. An attempt at direct surgical repair of the valvular lesion was unsuccessful.

Left ventricular (LV) systolic function is an important determinant of long-term prognosis in patients with chronic aortic regurgitation (AR). Impaired LV systolic function identifies a group of patients who are at risk of developing postoperative congestive heart failure and death after aortic valve replacement (AVR). Hence, asymptomatic patients with

Aortic regurgitation and unusual diastolic mitral regurgitation
European Journal of Echocardiography, 2008In patients with infective endocarditis affecting the aortic valve, a secondary involvement of subaortic structures may occur in a mechanism of direct extension or as a result of an infected jet of aortic regurgitation striking the ventricular surfaces of the mitral-aortic intervalvular fibrosa and the anterior mitral leaflet (AML).

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 ...

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.

Biphasic Pulmonary Regurgitation
Echocardiography, 2009A patient with first‐degree atrioventricular (AV) block and pulmonary regurgitation underwent a transthoracic echocardiogram. Continuous wave Doppler interrogation of the pulmonic valve displayed a biphasic regurgitation pattern. A discussion of the potential mechanism underlying this pattern is presented.
