Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Ischemic mitral regurgitation (IMR) is a common complication of coronary artery disease and represents an independent predictor of mortality. In the IMR the pattern of mitral valve annular dilatation is asymmetrical: this can explain the long-term incidence of recurrent mitral regurgitation after surgical annular size reduction with a symmetrical ring. The aim of this study is to analyze early and mid-term results of mitral valve repair (MVR) with the CMA IMR ETlogix ring, specifically developed for the surgical correction of IMR. METHODS:Retrospectively, we studied 157 consecutive patients who underwent MVR with the CMA ETlogix ring for the treatment of grade ≥2 IMR in our center between June 2006 and December 2012. We reported clinical and echocardiographic early and mid-term results of this surgical technique. RESULTS:Postoperative 30days mortality was 6.3%. Postoperative echocardiography evaluation at discharge revealed the absence of residual MR in 70%, mild MR in 26.5% and moderate MR in 3.5% of patients respectively. Median echographic follow-up time was 28 (3-84) months: survival rate was 92.1% at 32months; free from mitral valve reoperation rate was 97.5% and grade >2 MR recurrence free survival rate was 96.6%. CONCLUSION:There are a few reports in the literature concerning the mid-term results of IMR surgical correction with CMA Etlogix ring. Our study, taking into account a large series of patients and an important follow-up period, demonstrates the effectiveness of this surgical repair technique reporting a low mid-term incidence of recurrent MR.
