Ischemic mitral regurgitation: perioperative management.

A Comparison of 2 Mitral Annuloplasty Rings for Severe Ischemic Mitral Regurgitation: Clinical and Echocardiographic Outcomes.
2016
Controversies regarding the choice of annuloplasty rings for treatment of ischemic mitral regurgitation still exist. Aim of the study is to compare early performance of 2 different rings in terms of rest and exercise echocardiographic parameters (transmitral gradient, systolic pulmonary artery pressure, and mitral valve area), clinical outcomes, and recurrence of mitral regurgitation. From January 2008 till December 2013, prospectively collected data of patients who underwent coronary artery bypass grafting and undersizing mitral valve annuloplasty for severe chronic ischemic mitral regurgitation at our Institution were reviewed. A total of 93 patients were identified; among them 44 had sem…
Relocation of Papillary Muscles for Ischemic Mitral Valve Regurgitation
2014
Objective The assessment of the mitral valve apparatus (MVA) and its modifications during ischemic mitral regurgitation (IMR) is better performed by three-dimensional (3D) transesophageal echocardiography (TEE). The aim of our study was to carry out nonrestrictive mitral annuloplasty in addition to relocation of papillary muscles (PPMs) oriented by preoperative real-time 3D TEE through the mitral valve quantification dedicated software. Methods Since January 2008, a total of 70 patients with severe IMR were examined both before and after mitral valve repair. The mean (SD) coaptation depth and the mean (SD) tenting area were 1.4 (0.4) cm and 3.2 (0.5) cm2, respectively. Intraoperative 3D TEE…
Impact of moderate ischemic mitral regurgitation after isolated coronary artery bypass grafting
2009
The aim of the study was to evaluate the clinical and echocardiographic outcomes, at rest and under exercise testing, of patients with moderate ischemic mitral regurgitation (IMR) undergoing isolated coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG).Between February 2003 and March 2008, 180 patients with moderate IMR who had isolated CABG were enrolled. Patients were matched 1:2 (n = 360) with patients who underwent isolated CABG without IMR (by propensity score). The study endpoints were freedom from all death, cardiac related-death, late events, and cardiac-related events. Late outcomes and left ventricular remodeling were evaluated according to preoperative percent of ejection fraction. Sympto…
Evolution Of Moderate Chronic Ischemic Mitral Regurgitation In Patients Underwent Only Coronary Artery Surgery: Clinical And Echocardiographic Follow…
2008
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.
Multiplane Two-Dimensional versus Real Time Three-Dimensional Transesophageal Echocardiography in Ischemic Mitral Regurgitation
2011
Objectives: Intraoperative three-dimensional (3D) transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) has been suggested to be a valuable technique for the evaluation of the mechanisms of ischemic mitral regurgitation (IMR). Studies comparing multiplane two-dimensional (2D) with 3D TEE reconstruction of the mitral valve using the new mitral valve quantification (MVQ) software are lacking. We undertook a prospective comparison between multiplane 2D and 3D TEE for the assessment of IMR. Methods: We evaluated echocardiographically 45 patients with IMR who underwent mitral valve surgery in our institution. 2D and 3D TEE examinations followed by a 3D offline assessment of the mitral valve apparatus were perf…
Abstract 18060: Risk Stratification Following Mitral Valve Surgery for Chronic Ischemic Mitral Regurgitation: A Very Long-term Study
2015
Background: Very few long-term data are available on patients undergoing mitral valve surgery for chronic ischemic mitral regurgitation (CIMR). Objective:to identify determinants of survival and adverse cardiovascular events, at very long-term outcome. Methods and Results: We reviewed complete left and right ventricular echocardiographic data, six-minute walking test (6-MWT) and BNP levels at pre, peri and follow-up, on 137 consecutive patients who underwent restrictive mitral annuloplasty (RMA) or mitral valve replacement (MVR) and CABG, for CIMR. Combined adverse cardiovascular events were defined as composite of death, heart failure, angina, myocardial infarction and re-hospitalization.…
