Impact of Mitral Regurgitation Recurrence on Mitral Valve Repair for Secondary Ischemic Mitral Regurgitation.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

The current guidelines still do not include specific recommendations on the use of subvalvular repair (SV-r) for treatment of ischemic mitral regurgitation (IMR). Therefore, the objective of our study was to evaluate the clinical impact of mitral regurgitation (MR) recurrence and ventricular remodeling on long-term outcomes after SV-r combined with restrictive annuloplasty (RA-r).

Methods

We performed a subanalysis of the papillary muscle approximation trial, studying 96 patients with severe IMR and coronary artery disease undergoing restrictive annuloplasty alongside subvalvular repair (SV-r + RA-r group) or restrictive annuloplasty alone (RA-r group). We analyzed treatment failure differences, the influence of residual MR, left ventricular remodeling, and clinical outcomes. The primary endpoint was treatment failure (composite of death; reoperation; or recurrence of moderate, moderate-to-severe, or severe MR) within 5 years of follow-up after the procedure.

Results

A total of 45 patients showed failure of the treatment within 5 years, of which 16 patients underwent SV-r + RA-r (35.6%) and 29 underwent RA-r (64.4%, p = 0.006). Patients with significant residual MR presented with a higher rate of all-cause mortality at 5 years compared with trivial MR (HR 9.09, 95% CI 2.08-33.33, p = 0.003). MR progression occurred earlier in the RA-r group, as 20 patients in the RA-r group vs. 6 in SV-r + RA-r group had a significant MR 2 years after surgery (p = 0.002).

Conclusions

RA-r remains a surgical mitral repair technique with an increased risk of failure and mortality at 5 years compared with SV-r. The rates of recurrent MR are higher, and recurrence occurs earlier, with RA-r alone compared to SV-r. The addition of the subvalvular repair increases the durability of the repair, thus extending all of the benefits of preventing MR recurrence.

Project description:ObjectivesThe Cardiothoracic Surgical Trials Network recently reported no difference in the primary end point of left ventricular end-systolic volume index at 1 year postsurgery in patients randomized to repair (n = 126) or replacement (n = 125) for severe ischemic mitral regurgitation. However, patients undergoing repair experienced significantly more recurrent mitral regurgitation than patients undergoing replacement (32.6% vs 2.3%). We examined whether baseline echocardiographic and clinical characteristics could identify those who will develop moderate/severe recurrent mitral regurgitation or die.MethodsOur analysis includes 116 patients who were randomized to and received mitral valve repair. Logistic regression was used to estimate a model-based probability of recurrence or death from baseline factors. Receiver operating characteristic curves were constructed from these estimated probabilities to determine classification cut-points maximizing accuracy of prediction based on sensitivity and specificity.ResultsOf the 116 patients, 6 received a replacement before leaving the operating room; all other patients had mild or less mitral regurgitation on intraoperative echocardiogram after repair. During the 2-year follow-up period, 76 patients developed moderate/severe mitral regurgitation or died (53 mitral regurgitation recurrences, 13 mitral regurgitation recurrences and death, and 10 deaths). The mechanism for recurrent mitral regurgitation was largely mitral valve leaflet tethering. Our model (including age, body mass index, sex, race, effective regurgitant orifice area, basal aneurysm/dyskinesis, New York Heart Association class, history of coronary artery bypass grafting, percutaneous coronary intervention, or ventricular arrhythmias) yielded an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.82.ConclusionsThe model demonstrated good discrimination in identifying patients who will survive 2 years without recurrent mitral regurgitation after mitral valve repair. Although our results require validation, they offer a clinically relevant risk score for selection of surgical candidates for this procedure.

Project description:BackgroundIschemic mitral regurgitation is associated with a substantial risk of death. Practice guidelines recommend surgery for patients with a severe form of this condition but acknowledge that the supporting evidence for repair or replacement is limited.MethodsWe randomly assigned 251 patients with severe ischemic mitral regurgitation to undergo either mitral-valve repair or chordal-sparing replacement in order to evaluate efficacy and safety. The primary end point was the left ventricular end-systolic volume index (LVESVI) at 12 months, as assessed with the use of a Wilcoxon rank-sum test in which deaths were categorized below the lowest LVESVI rank.ResultsAt 12 months, the mean LVESVI among surviving patients was 54.6±25.0 ml per square meter of body-surface area in the repair group and 60.7±31.5 ml per square meter in the replacement group (mean change from baseline, -6.6 and -6.8 ml per square meter, respectively). The rate of death was 14.3% in the repair group and 17.6% in the replacement group (hazard ratio with repair, 0.79; 95% confidence interval, 0.42 to 1.47; P=0.45 by the log-rank test). There was no significant between-group difference in LVESVI after adjustment for death (z score, 1.33; P=0.18). The rate of moderate or severe recurrence of mitral regurgitation at 12 months was higher in the repair group than in the replacement group (32.6% vs. 2.3%, P<0.001). There were no significant between-group differences in the rate of a composite of major adverse cardiac or cerebrovascular events, in functional status, or in quality of life at 12 months.ConclusionsWe observed no significant difference in left ventricular reverse remodeling or survival at 12 months between patients who underwent mitral-valve repair and those who underwent mitral-valve replacement. Replacement provided a more durable correction of mitral regurgitation, but there was no significant between-group difference in clinical outcomes.

Project description:We aimed to identify predictors of mitral regurgitation recurrence (MR) after percutaneous mitral valve repair (PMVR) in patients with functional mitral regurgitation (FMR). Patients with FMR were enrolled who underwent PMVR using the MitraClip® device. Procedural success was defined as reduction of MR of at least one grade to MR grade ≤ 2 + assessed at discharge. Recurrence of MR was defined as MR grade 3 + or worse at one year after initially successful PMVR. A total of 306 patients with FMR underwent PMVR procedure. In 279 out of 306 patients (91.2%), PMVR was successfully performed with MR grade ≤ 2 + at discharge. In 11.4% of these patients, MR recurrence of initial successful PMVR after 1 year was observed. Recurrence of MR was associated with a higher rate of heart failure rehospitalization during the 12 months follow-up (52.0% vs. 30.3%; p = 0.029), and less improvement in New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional class [68% vs. 19% of the patients presenting with NYHA functional class III or IV one year after PMVR when compared to patients without recurrence (p = 0.001)]. Patients with MR recurrence were characterized by a higher left ventricular sphericity index {0.69 [Interquartile range (IQR) 0.64, 0.74] vs. 0.65 (IQR 0.58, 0.70), p = 0.003}, a larger left atrium volume [118 (IQR 96, 143) ml vs. 102 (IQR 84, 123) ml, p = 0.019], a larger tenting height 10 (IQR 9, 13) mm vs. 8 (IQR 7, 11) mm (p = 0.047), and a larger mitral valve annulus [41 (IQR 38, 43) mm vs. 39 (IQR 36, 40) mm, p = 0.015] when compared to patients with durable optimal long-term results. In a multivariate regression model, the left ventricular sphericity index [Odds Ratio (OR) 1.120, 95% Confidence Interval (CI) 1.039-1.413, p = 0.003)], tenting height (OR 1.207, 95% CI 1.031-1.413, p = 0.019), and left atrium enlargement (OR 1.018, 95% CI 1.000-1.038, p = 0.047) were predictors for MR recurrence after 1 year. In patients with FMR, baseline parameters of advanced heart failure such as spherical ventricle, tenting height and a large left atrium might indicate risk of recurrent MR one year after PMVR.
