Current concepts in the pathogenesis and treatment of ischemic mitral regurgitation

  • Conference paper
Ischemic Mitral Incompetence

Abstract

Under normal conditions, mitral valve competence is maintained by a complex interaction of the five components of mitral valve function: the ventricular wall, the fibrous annulus, the papillary muscles, the chordae tendineae, and the valve leaflets. Derangements in any single component can produce valve dysfunction, but in ischemic incompetence, the primary defect is infarction of the ventricular wall and papillary muscles. With increasing interest in valvular reconstruction in ischemic mitral regurgitation, a detailed knowledge of mitral valve anatomy has become essential.
