Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Recent publications show that an adjunctive subvalvular repair during mitral annuloplasty for secondary mitral regurgitation effective in preventing recurrent regurgitation. One of these procedures is the papillary muscles approximation. However, the safety and the positive impact of this method are still in doubt.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Ischemic mitral regurgitation develops in 10-50% of patients after myocardial infarction. Among several surgical procedures, mitral ring annuloplasty has been the method of choice for a considerable period. However, mitral regurgitation recurrence after surgery has a reported occurrence that ranges from 5% to 58%. Careful consideration of the mechanisms underlying recurrence of mitral regurgitation after annuloplasty might explain the unsatisfactory outcomes. The pathophysiology of IMR is complex and results from the imbalance between closing and tethering forces acting on the mitral valve. Enlargement of the left ventricular chamber, and displacement of papillary muscles in apical and lateral direction increase the tethering forces. Left ventricular and papillary muscle dyssynchrony, reduced myocardial contractility decrease closing forces, which lead to impaired leaflet coaptation and appearance of mitral regurgitation. Thus, treatment of mitral insufficiency requires an integrated approach affecting all units of the pathogenesis of MR recurrence.

Recent publications show that an adjunctive subvalvular repair during mitral annuloplasty for secondary mitral regurgitation effective in preventing recurrent regurgitation. One of these procedures is the papillary muscles approximation. However, the safety and the positive impact of this method are still in doubt. This study is conducted to identify the positive qualities and safety of this technique.

PMA+MVA+CABG

patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy and mitral regurgitation who underwent coronary artery bypass grafting, mitral annuloplasty, and papillary muscles approximation.

The papillary muscle approximation

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Surgery is performed through median sternotomy, aortic and bicaval cannulation, normothermic perfusion, and antegrade cardioplegia with the use of cardioplegic solution.

After coronary anastomosis, the mitral valve is exposed by a transseptal incision.

The papillary muscles are approximated through the mitral valve at the level of papillary muscles heads. Nonabsorbable, braided sutures of 2-0 (Ethibond, Ethicon, Inc.) with PTFE felt pledgets are used for this purpose.

Annuloplasty mitral rings of different sizes are anchored using multiple deep U-shaped stitches of Ethibond 2-0 (Ethicon, Inc., USA). After MV repair, the LV is forcefully filled with saline water to test the valve competence. After satisfactory hydraulic test walls of the heart chambers are sutured.

MVA+CABG

patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy who underwent coronary artery bypass grafting and mitral valve annuloplasty.
