Objective: Aortic insufficiency (AI) can lead to left ventricular (LV) remodeling characterized by dilation and increased LV mass. This remodeling can cause altered mitral valve coaptation and functional mitral regurgitation (FMR). While there is growing evidence that aortic valve replacement (AVR) for aortic stenosis promotes sufficient ventricular reverse remodeling that FMR improves or resolves, this effect is not well characterized for patients with AI. Methods: All cases of AVR for AI that were performed at a single center between January 2003 and December 2015 were reviewed. Cases with any concomitant procedures, any degree of aortic stenosis, any evidence of ischemic etiology, absence of mitral regurgitation, or significant primary mitral pathology were excluded from analysis. The primary outcome was change in FMR after isolated AVR. Secondary outcomes included change in LV ejection fraction (EF), left atrial (LA) dimension, and change in end-diastolic and –systolic LV dimensions. Two-tailed paired t-test was used to evaluate for difference between the two time points. Results: Over the course of 13.4 years, 31 cases of isolated aortic valve replacement for pure aortic insufficiency with concurrent functional mitral regurgitation were identified. 54.8% (17/31) of cases had some evidence of bacteremia or aortic vegetations at time of surgery, with 41.9% (13/31) of cases completed urgently. Postoperatively, FMR was improved in 74.2% (23/31) of the patients, and decreased by a mean 1.0 ± 0.8 grades (1.6 ± 0.8 vs 0.6 ± 0.7, p < 0.001). There was no significant change in LV EF (50.5 ± 13.4 vs. 50.2 ± 12.9, p = 0.892) or LA dimension (42.5 ± 7.2 vs 40.7 ± 5.9, p = 0.341), but there were significant reductions in the dimension of the LV at end-diastole (56.7 ± 7.1 vs 47.7 ± 8.5, p < 0.001) and end-systole (38.5 ± 9.7 vs 34.0 ± 8.3, p = 0.011). Conclusions: Significant reduction in ventricular size and subsequent improvement in functional mitral regurgitation is expected after isolated aortic valve replacement for pure aortic insufficiency.

Aortic valve replacement for aortic stenosis represents one of the most frequent surgical procedures on heart valves. These patients often have concomitant mitral regurgitation. To reveal whether the moderate mitral regurgitation will improve after aortic valve replacement alone, we performed a systematic review and meta-analysis. We identified 27 studies with 4452 patients that underwent aortic valve replacement for aortic stenosis and had co-existent mitral regurgitation. Primary end point was the impact of aortic valve replacement on the concomitant mitral regurgitation. Secondary end points were the analysis of the left ventricle reverse remodeling and long-term survival. Our results showed that there was significant improvement in mitral regurgitation postoperatively (RR, 1.65; 95% CI 1.36–2.00; p < 0.00001) with the average decrease of 0.46 (WMD; 95% CI 0.35–0.57; p < 0.00001). The effect is more pronounced in the elderly population. Perioperative mortality was higher (p < 0.0001) and long-term survival significantly worse (p < 0.00001) in patients that had moderate/severe mitral regurgitation preoperatively. We conclude that after aortic valve replacement alone there are fair chances but for only slight improvement in concomitant mitral regurgitation. The secondary moderate mitral regurgitation should be addressed at the time of aortic valve replacement. A more conservative approach should be followed for elderly and high-risk patients.

Background: Mitral regurgitation (MR) is common in patients undergoing aortic valve replacement (AVR) for aortic stenosis (AS). Whether its severity may decrease after AVR remains controversial. Previous studies were mainly retrospective and the degree of MR was assessed at best semi-quantitatively. This study sought to prospectively and quantitatively assess how AVR may affect MR severity. Methods: Patients with AS scheduled for isolated AVR and presenting holosystolic MR which was not considered for replacement or repair were included. Previous mitral valve surgery; severe aortic regurgitation and poor acoustic windows were excluded. Thirty-five patients (mean age 77±7 years) were studied before (median 1, range 1– 41 days) and after AVR (median 7, range 4 –19 days). All patients underwent a comprehensive echocardiographic examination; MR was assessed by Doppler echocardiography using color flow mapping of the regurgitant jet and the PISA method. No patient had prolapsed or flail mitral leaflet as mechanism of MR. Results: Preoperative maximal and mean transaortic pressure gradients and aortic valve area were 74±26 mmHg, 44±16 mmHg, and 0.57±0.18 cm 2 , respectively. Left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction increased from 49±16 % to 55±15 % after AVR (p<0.001). LV end-diastolic volume decreased from 91±32 ml to 77±30 ml (p<0.001).The ratio of MR jet to left atrial area decreased from 30±16% to 20±14% (p<0.001). MR effective regurgitant orifice (ERO) and regurgitant volume decreased from 10±5 mm 2 to 8±6 mm 2 (p=0.015) and from 19±10 ml to 11±9 ml (p<0.0001). The decrease in ERO and in regurgitant volume was similar in patients with preserved or depressed LV ejection fraction (≤45 %) (2±3 vs 3±6 mm 2 and 7±9 vs 8±7 ml; p=NS, respectively). Conclusions: AVR is associated with an early postoperative reduction of the quantified degree of MR. This mainly results from a decrease in regurgitant volume and only modestly from a reduction in ERO, emphasizing the contributing role of the decrease in driving pressure accross the mitral regurgitant orifice.

Abstract Introduction Recently, we have reported that large left atrial volume (minimum left atrial volume index : LAVImin ≥30ml/m²) at end-diastole determined by direct exposure of left ventricular (LV) end-diastolic pressure can predict post-operative symptomatic status after aortic valve replacement (AVR) in aortic stenosis (AS) patients with high sensitivity and modest specificity. Reverse remodeling of large LAVImin after AVR may contribute to false positive for the prediction of post-operative symptomatic status in patients with AS. Purpose The purpose of this study was to evaluate relationship between post-operative symptomatic status and reverse remodeling of large LAVImin in patients with AS who underwent AVR. Methods The study population consisted of 75 patients with AS who underwent AVR and were followed up for 600 days after AVR, after the exclusion of the followings; atrial fibrillation, significant coronary artery disease, significant mitral valve disease, pacemaker rhythm, and inadequate echocardiographic images. We measured LAVImin by biplane Simpson"s method before and after AVR. Preoperative large LAVImin (≥30ml/m²) according to the previous study was observed in 32 (43%) of 75 patients. We divided these 32 patients into two groups according to the post-operative symptomatic status during the follow-up period. Results There was no significant difference in pre-operative LAVImin between patients with and without post-operative symptom (46.5 ± 13.4 vs 40.4 ± 8.6 ml/m²). On the other hand, post-operative LAVImin in patients without post-operative symptom was significantly smaller than that in patients with post-operative symptom (31.5 ± 8.6 vs 54.8 ± 14.0 ml/m², p &lt; 0.01). While significant regression in LAVImin after AVR was observed in patients without post-operative symptom (40.4 ± 8.6 to 31.5 ± 8.6 ml/m², p &lt; 0.05), no regression in LAVImin after AVR was observed in patients with post-operative symptom (46.5 ± 13.4 to 54.8 ± 14.0 ml/m²). Conclusions Reverse remodeling of large LAVmin in patients with AS who underwent AVR was observed in post-operative asymptomatic group, but not in symptomatic group. These results suggest that reverse remodeling of large LAVImin after AVR could contribute to the post-operative asymptomatic status in patients with AS who underwent AVR.

AbstractA 57-year-old male with ascending aortic aneurysm, severe aortic regurgitation, and severe mitral regurgitation (MR) underwent ascending aortic replacement and aortic valve replacement. MR in this patient with normal mitral valve morphology was considered secondary to aortic valve incompetency. Consequently, a surgical approach to restore aortic valve function was adopted with successful MR resolution. This case report demonstrates the possibility of reversing early functional mitral regurgitation without surgically approaching the mitral valve.
