Mechanisms, features, and significance of diastolic mitral regurgitation: a case series

ABSTRACT: Abstract

Background

Diastolic mitral regurgitation (DMR) is a type of functional mitral regurgitation. Its occurrence in the diastolic phase of cardiac cycle renders DMR an easily ignored entity. Confusing it with systolic mitral regurgitation occasionally happens. The reversal of left atrioventricular pressure gradient during diastole and the incomplete closure of mitral valve are the essential conditions for DMR. Diastolic mitral regurgitation develops under various situations, where the mechanisms of diastolic reversal of left atrioventricular pressure gradient differ.

Case summary

Patient 1 was a 50-year-old man diagnosed with 2:1?second-degree atrioventricular block (AVB). Patient 2 was a 70-year-old man diagnosed with first-degree AVB. Patient 3 was a 66-year-old man diagnosed with atrial fibrillation with long intermission and occasional atrial flutter with unequal conduction. Patient 4 was a 54-year-old woman diagnosed with dilated cardiomyopathy with complete left bundle branch block. Patient 5 was a 36-year-old man diagnosed with severe acute aortic regurgitation secondary to subacute bacterial endocarditis.

Discussion

Although the degree of DMR is relatively mild, its appearance generally prompts further clinical considerations. The appreciation of DMR has an incremental value for diagnosing and evaluating the underlying cardiovascular disease.

Mitral Annular Kinetics, Left Atrial, and Left Ventricular Diastolic Function Post Mitral Valve Repair in Degenerative Mitral Regurgitation.

Project description:ObjectiveThe relationship of mitral annular (MA) kinetics to left ventricular (LV) and left atrial (LA) function before and after mitral valve (MV) repair has not been well studied. Here we sought to provide comprehensive analysis that relates to MA motions, and LA and LV diastolic function post MV repair.MethodsThree-dimensional analyses of mitral annular motion, LA function, and LV volumetric and diastolic strain rates were performed on 35 degenerative mitral regurgitation (MR) patients at baseline and 1-year post MV repair, and 51 normal controls, utilizing cardiac magnetic resonance imaging with tissue tagging.ResultsAll had normal LV ejection fraction (EF) at baseline. LV and LA EFs decreased 1-year post-surgery vs. controls. LV early diastolic myocardial strain rates decreased post-surgery along with decreases in normalized early diastolic filling rate, E/A ratio, and early diastolic MA relaxation rates. Post-surgical LA late active kick remained higher in MR patients vs. control. LV and LA EFs were significantly associated with peak MA centroid to apex shortening. Furthermore, during LV systolic phase, peak LV ejection and LA filling rates were significantly correlated with peak MA centroid to apex shortening rate, respectively. While during LV diastolic phase, both peak early diastolic MA centroid to apex relaxation rate and LA ejection rate were positively significantly associated with LV peak early diastolic filling rate.ConclusionMA motion is significantly associated with LA and LV function. Mitral annular motion, left atrial function, and LV diastolic strain rates are still impaired 1 year post MV repair. Long-term effects of these impairments should be prospectively evaluated.

Emergent TandemHeart-ECMO for acute severe mitral regurgitation with cardiogenic shock and hypoxaemia: a case series.

Project description:BackgroundAcute severe mitral regurgitation (MR) associated with cardiogenic shock is a life-threatening emergency. Traditional teaching has focused on the need for emergent coronary angiography and/or intra-aortic balloon counterpulsation in preparation for emergent open-heart surgery for repair/replacement. Unfortunately, emergent open-heart surgery in patients with acute MR complicated by cardiogenic shock is associated with 25-46% perioperative mortality. New devices have provided additional options for stabilization prior to emergent surgery which facilitate improved outcomes.Case summaryWe present two cases of acute severe MR resulting in cardiogenic shock and profound hypoxaemia. TandemHeart® mechanical circulatory support with an oxygenator spliced into the circuit, akin to veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), facilitated haemodynamic stabilization and decongestion of the lungs facilitating successful bridge to mitral valve surgery. Successful discharge to home was achieved in both patients with good neurological outcomes and sustained long-term functional recovery at 18 and 14 months, respectively.DiscussionSelective use of the TandemHeart®, with or without ECMO, facilitates management of the critically ill cardiogenic shock patient with acute severe MR.

An intra-aortic balloon pump was placed, and surgical intervention was considered.

Robotic mitral valve repair for rheumatic mitral stenosis and regurgitation: a case report.

Project description:BackgroundRheumatic mitral valve (MV) disease is the major cause of congestive cardiac failure in children and young adults, particularly in developing countries. Mitral valve repair with minimum prosthetic material is the gold standard treatment for this condition. However, MV repair for rheumatic MV disease is known to be technically demanding.Case summaryA 27-year-old woman without a history of cardiac disease presented with dyspnoea on exertion. Echocardiography revealed rheumatic severe mitral stenosis and regurgitation, with thickening of the bileaflets, doming of the anterior leaflet, shortening of the posterior leaflet, fusions of the lateral and particularly the medial commissure, and enlargement of the mitral annulus. We successfully performed robot-assisted MV repair with bicommissural release, patch augmentation of the two leaflets, and implantation of an originally sized partial band.DiscussionRobotic MV repair can contribute to precise valve inspection and operative procedures. This approach seems feasible for complex rheumatic MV disease particularly in young patients.

Hammock mitral valve: a rare cause of congenital mitral regurgitation--a case report.

Project description:Hammock valve, also known as anomalous mitral arcade is a rare mechanism for congenital mitral insufficiency. We report a case of a two-week-old neonate who presented with features of heart failure and an apical systolic murmur. Echocardiogram showed severe mitral regurgitation and abnormal mitral valve with direct attachment of mitral leaflets to papillary muscle without intervening chordae tendinae, typical of hammock valve. Heart failure was controlled with ionotrpes and diuretics. The literature on the hammock mitral valve is reviewed.

Functional mitral regurgitation combined with increased early diastolic transmitral velocity to early mitral annulus diastolic velocity ratio is associated with a poor prognosis in patients with shock.

Project description:BackgroundFunctional mitral regurgitation (FMR) is common in critically ill patients and may cause left atrial (LA) pressure elevation. This study aims to explore the prognostic impact of synergistic LA pressure elevation and FMR in patients with shock.MethodsWe retrospectively screened 130 consecutive patients of 175 patients with shock from April 2016 to June 2017. The incidence and impact of FMR and early diastolic transmitral velocity to early mitral annulus diastolic velocity ratio (E/e') ≥ 4 within 6 h of shock on the prognosis of patients were evaluated. Finally, the synergistic effect of FMR and E/e' were assessed by combination, grouping, and trend analyses.ResultsForty-four patients (33.8%) had FMR, and 15 patients (11.5%) had E/e' elevation. A multivariate analysis revealed FMR and E/e' as independent correlated factors for 28-day mortality (P = 0.043 and 0.028, respectively). The Kaplan-Meier survival analysis revealed a significant difference in survival between patients with and without FMR (χ2 = 7.672, P = 0.006) and between the E/e' ≥ 14 and E/e' < 14 groups (χ2 = 19.351, P < 0.010). Twenty-eight-day mortality was significantly different among the four groups (χ2 = 30.141, P < 0.010). The risk of 28-day mortality was significantly higher in group 4 (E/e' ≥ 14 with FMR) compared with groups 1 (E/e' < 14 without FMR) and 2 (E/e' < 14 with FMR) (P = 0.001 and 0.046, respectively).ConclusionsPatients with shock can be identified by the presence of FMR. FMR and E/e' are independent risk factors for a poor prognosis in these patients, and prognosis is worst when FMR and E/e' ≥ 14 are present. It may be possible to improve prognosis by reducing LA pressure and E/e'.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03082326.
