Biatrial Versus Bicaval Orthotopic Heart Transplantation: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
2020, Annals of Thoracic SurgeryCitation Excerpt :Mitral regurgitation post OHT is still not well studied. Mitral regurgitation could be caused by a mismatch in size between the donor heart and native heart, early allograft rejection, left ventricular failure after OHT, and a dilated left atrium.29-31 In our study, early mitral regurgitation occurred more frequently in the biatrial transplant group (Figure 2D).
Coronary Sinus-Based Approach to Mitral Regurgitation
2016, Interventional Cardiology ClinicsCitation Excerpt :Theoretically, this force on the mitral annulus may be helpful in reducing secondary mitral regurgitation by reducing annular size. Based on echo studies, FMR affects 45% to 100% (average 60%) of patients with congestive heart failure, with 24% to 58% (average 40%) having more than mild FMR.1–7 This suggests that the prevalence of FMR is vast, affecting several-fold more individuals than aortic stenosis.
Percutaneous coronary intervention of the left main artery before MitraClip implantation
2014, Cardiovascular Revascularization MedicineCitation Excerpt :In patients with heart failure, mitral regurgitation is very common, even in the absence of structural mitral valve disease, due to secondary structural changes of the ventricle and mitral annulus [1].

2011, Journal of the Saudi Heart AssociationCitation Excerpt :Survival rates at 1, 3, and 5 years were significantly lower in patients with moderate to severe MR versus those with mild or no MR (p < 0.001). MR was found to be an independent predictor of mortality and is reportedly an indicator of poor prognosis in patients with DCM (William Abraham and Waldo, 2006; Strauss et al., 1987; Blondheim et al., 1991; Conti and Mills, 1993; Otto, 2001; Koelling et al., 2002; Robbins et al., 2003; Trichon et al., 2003; Fukuda et al., 2005). In a further study of 130 patients awaiting transplantation, the 1-year survival was only 46%.
