Abstract Late recovery of left ventricular function in patients with non-severe ischemic mitral regurgitation and multivessel disease qualified to cardiosurgery treatment. Purpose In patients (pts) after myocardial infarction (MI) with chronic left ventricle (LV) dysfunction, the presence and degree of ischemic mitral regurgitation (IMR) are predominantly related to LV remodelling and mitral valvular deformation. The aim of this study was to compare functional recovery (LVFR) as well as reverse remodelling of the left ventricle (LVRR) in pts with non-severe IMR qualified for cardiosurgical treatment - coronary artery bypass grafting alone (CABGa) or CABG with mitral repair (CABGmr in the 12-month follow-up. Materials and methods A total of 100 pts (mean age 64,4 ± 7,9 years) after MI, eligible for CABG, were included in a prospective study. Echo and clinical assessment were performed before and 12-months after surgery. Pts were referred for CABG a(gr.1; n = 74) or CABGmr (gr.2; n = 26) based on clinical assessment, 2D echo at rest and exercise and myocardial viability assessment (low dose dobutamine - dbx). Effective regurgitation orifice area (EROA) was used for quantitative IMR assessment. An increase in EF≥ 5% (ΔEF) from baseline value was considered as LVFR. A decrease in LV end-systolic volume > 15% from baseline value was considered as LVRR. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to identify the strongest factors of lack of LVFR and LVRR. Results An LVFR was observed, at late control, in 35 (49%) of pts in the CABGa group and in 11 (48%) of pts in CABGmr group (p = 0,948). LVRR was observed in 41 (56%) of pts in the CABGa group and in 16 (70%) of pts in CABGmr group 12 months follow-up (p = 0,5). In pts with LVFR, there was a lower incidence of at least moderate IMR at follow-up (ΔEF dbx≥5% vs ΔEFdbx < 5%:11% vs 30% pts; p = 0,05). Multivariable logistic regression analysis revealed that in both CABGa and CABGmr group only preoperative age and EF changes during stress echo remained the independent predictors of the lack of LVFR in 12 months follow-up (table 1). Conclusions 1. LVFR and LVRR were reported in most of the pts in both analyzed groups. 2. Preoperative assessment of changes EF during dbx (ΔEFdbx)can be used to identify pts with IMR at increased risk of lack of improvement in LV function and risk of residual IMRin 12-month f-up after surgery. Parameters Odds ratio (OR) Odds ratio (OR) p CABGa vs CABGmr 0,644 0,215 - 1,927 0,432 Age (increase by every 5 years) 1,11 1,039 - 1,879 0,003 ΔEF dbx (increase by every 5%) 0,21 0,096 - 0,46 <0,001 Table 1. Prognostic factors lack improvement in left ventricle function.

Ischemic mitral regurgitation (IMR) is a common complication, which is accompanied by myocardial infarction, causing heart failure and leading to poor prognosis. Although several surgical techniques have been reported, certain surgical methods have not been established for treating IMR. We report a successful case of left ventricular posterior wall plication through a left atriotomy over the mitral valve for IMR in a patient who experienced cardiac shock and could not be weaned off mechanical support. Posterior wall plication changed the left ventricle from a spherical to an oval shape, restored the position of papillary muscles and posterior wall, improved leaflet tethering, and prevented further remodeling of the left ventricle. This method may be useful for treating IMR and improve patients’ prognosis.

Main Factor

Ischemic mitral regurgitation (IMR) is a frequent complication in the patients after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) or in ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICM), associated with significant prognosis worsening. Mitral valve (MV) involvement may be primary (organic MR) or secondary (functional MR). Primary MR develops because of mitral subvalvular apparatus rupture as an AMI complication. Secondary IMR develops in the conditions of normal MV cusps and chords structure because of balance impairment between MV closure and tension forces secondary to left ventricle (LV) geometry alterations. According to evidence data both scenarios of IMR are associated with at least one major coronary artery critical stenosis (>70%). Secondary IMR is the most frequent consequence of ischemic cardiomyopathy. IMR diagnosis is associated with elevated patients mortality compared to those without it. It has been shown, that survival within patients with IMR after AMI down to 40% in case of moderate-to-severe IMR, compared to 62% in the patients with mild IMR or 84% in the patients without IMR at all. Pathophysiological mechanisms of IMR are not fully understood, but it is well known, that IMR is a complex entity, having left chambers, especially left ventricle (LV) remodeling as a key cause. Echocardiography (EchoCG) significantly contributes to understanding the underlying mechanisms of IMR. The aim of this review is to summarize modern evidence based data about IMR mechanisms and analysis of contemporary EchoCG indices for diagnosis, evaluation and risks stratification in the patients with IMR. IMR develops in approximately 20% of patients after AMI with increasing occurrence over past years, significantly influencing patients’ prognosis. IMR is a complex and dynamic entity, where LV remodeling is the main factor of MV dysfunction. EchoCG plays the clue role in IMR diagnosis giving the detailed information about its mechanisms and severity grading. Comprehensive EchoCG in the patients with coronary arteries disease (CAD) allows a better and comprehensive approach in risks stratification and optimal surgical IMR treatment planning.
