Overview
Chronic secondary MR is associated with impaired prognosis and its management includes electrophysiological, transcatheter, and surgical interventions. Mitral valve surgery is recommended in patients with severe secondary MR undergoing CABG or other cardiac surgery. The surgical approach has to be tailored to the individual patient. In selected patients without advanced LV remodelling, mitral valve repair resulted in improvement in symptoms, and reverse LV remodelling. Valve replacement prevents recurrence of mitral regurgitation. TEER with the MitraClip system is a minimal-invasive treatment option for secondary MR. Two RCTs (COAPT and MITRA-FR) demonstrated the safety and efficacy of procedure in patients with symptomatic heart failure and severe symptomatic secondary MR despite medical therapy, who are not eligible for surgery.
Surgical Therapy for Chronic Mitral Regurgitation
Primary Mitral Regurgitation
- Primary MR is a mechanical problem of the leaflet coaptation that needs mitral valve mechanical intervention.
- Symptomatic patients with severe MR have worsened prognosis even with normal LV function. Therefore, the onset of symptoms is an indication of mitral valve surgery.[1]
- The goal of therapy in MR is to correct it before the onset of LV systolic dysfunction.[2]
- The ideal time for mitral valve surgery is when there is not evidence of LV systolic dysfunction (LVEF ≤60% or LVESD ≥40 mm).[3]
- Mitral valve repair is recommended in the expertise center. However, mitral valve replacement is preferable to a poor repair.
- Annuloplasty and repair of the posterior leaflet have a lower mortality rate of <1%.[4]
- The onset of symptoms, LV dysfunction, or pulmonary hypertension worsens the prognosis for MR.
- MR may lead to progressively more severe MR causing LV dilation, stress on the mitral apparatus, further damage to the valve apparatus, more severe MR, and further LV dilation and initiating a cycle of increasing LV volumes and MR.[5]
- Longstanding volume overload leads to irreversible LV dysfunction and a poorer prognosis.
- Patients with severe MR who develop an LVEF <60% or LVESD ≥40 mm have already developed LV systolic dysfunction.
- LV function and size returned to normal after mitral valve repair in a study.[6]
- Mitral Transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) with the anterior and posterior leaflets clipped together at ≥1 location is safe and effective in treating severely symptomatic primary MR who are at high risk for surgery.
- Studies of TEER with a mitral valve clip showed improved symptoms and a reduction in MR by 2 to 3 grades, leading to reverse remodeling of the LV.[7]
- Rheumatic mitral valve disease is less suitable for mitral repair compared with complex degenerative disease.
- In the presence of thickened or calcified leaflets, an extensive subvalvular disease with chordal fusion and shortening, and progression of rheumatic disease the durability of repair would be limited.
- Repair of rheumatic mitral valve disease should be limited to patients with less advanced disease or in patients that mechanical prosthesis cannot be used because of anticoagulation contraindication.
- Mitral valve repair is recommended as follows:
- Severe primary MR limited to less than one-half of the posterior leaflet
- Inappropriate Mitral valve replacement
- Mortality rate of repair is <1%, long-term survival rate equivalent to that of age-matched general population, approximately 95% freedom from reoperation, and >80% freedom from recurrent moderate or severe (≥3) MR at 15 to 20 years after surgery.[8]
- Posterior leaflet repair is preferred to mitral valve replacement with a success rate ≥95%.

Secondary Mitral Regurgitation
- The COAPT trial of transcatheter treatment of secondary MR showed improvement in survival, hospitalization, symptoms, and quality of life in patients undergone TEER compared to only medical therapy.[10]
- A greater reduction in MR severity with TEER is associated with greater LV and LA reverse remodeling.[11][12]
- MR may develop in patients with preserved LV systolic function who have progressive LA dilation, leading to enlargement of the mitral annulus and malcoaptation of the [[leafle.
- This may arise in setting such as HF with preserved LVEF, restrictive cardiomyopathy, and nonobstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
- Presence of AF in these patients, contributes to the progression of LA and annular dilation, thus increasing the severity of MR.[13]
- Successful ablation of AF may reduce or eliminate MR.
- Mitral valve surgery was not associated with improved survival in symptomatic patients with secondary MR.However, surgery may improve symptoms and quality of life in symptomatic patients despite medical therapy.
- Small RCTs demonstrate that mitral valve surgery reduces chamber size and improves peak oxygen consumption in chronic severe secondary MR.
- Ischemic or dilated cardiomyopathy are different challenges for mitral repair.
- Regurgitation is caused by annular dilation, as well as by apical and lateral displacement of the papillary muscles.
- Progression of ventricular dilation has a negative effect on the long-term durability of the repair.
- In an RCT of mitral valve repair versus mitral valve replacement in patients with severe ischemic MR, there was no difference between repair and mitral valve replacement in survival rate or LV remodeling at 2 years. However, the rate of recurrence of moderate or severe MR over 2 years was higher in the repair group than in the replacement group, leading to a higher incidence of HF and repeat hospitalization.[14]
