description

Management of moderate chronic ischemic mitral valve regurgitation (oIMR) is still debated. Several authors favouring surgical treatment in combining with coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) while others suggested conservative approach. However, evolution of moderate oIMR after only CABG is still unclear. Aim of this study was to evaluate prospectively, at rest and under exercise condition, the clinical outcomes and echocardiographic results of patients with moderate cIMR underwent onlv CABG.
