Objectives. The current guidelines still do not include specific recommendations on the use of subvalvular repair (SV-r) for treatment of ischemic mitral regurgitation (IMR).

MitraClip for Secondary Mitral Regurgitation
We describe the case of an 83-year-old man with a history of ischemic cardiomyopathy and severe secondary mitral regurgitation. This case highlights the role of transcatheter edge-to-edge repair with the MitraClip in the management of symptomatic ...

Multimodality Imaging in Secondary Mitral Regurgitation [PDF]
Secondary mitral regurgitation (sMR) is characterized by left ventricular (LV) dilatation or dysfunction, resulting in failure of mitral leaflet coaptation.

Contemporary Management of Secondary Mitral Regurgitation
Secondary mitral regurgitation (SMR) is a common occurrence in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. Moderate-severe or severe SMR is associated with increased mortality and hospitalisations from heart failure.

Secondary mitral regurgitation occurs when a left ventricular problem causes leaking of the mitral valve. The altered left ventricular geometry changes the orientation of the subvalvular apparatus, thereby affecting the mechanical stress on the mitral ...

Percutaneous Interventions for Secondary Mitral Regurgitation [PDF]
Mitral regurgitation is frequently associated with ventricular dysfunction and carries a high mortality. Guideline-directed medical therapy, surgical mitral valve repair or replacement, and, in the setting of advanced heart failure, heart transplant and left ventricular assist devices have been the mainstay of treatment.

Treatment of secondary (or functional) mitral regurgitation had traditionally been limited to optimal medical therapy because studies have failed to show a survival benefit with mitral valve surgery for this condition.

Secondary Mitral Regurgitation
In their review of secondary mitral regurgitation (MR), Asgar et al. [(1)][1] attribute abnormal leaflet tethering largely to apical and lateral papillary muscle displacement. To our knowledge the first comprehensive quantitative echocardiographic study of this topic was reported in 1983 [(2)][2].

Valvular Disease Begets Valvular Disease
In acute severe aortic regurgitation, an inversion of pressure gradient from the left ventricle to the left atrium causes the classical sign of end-diastolic mitral regurgitation.

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.
