Overview
The pathophysiology of mitral regurgitation can be divided into three phases of the disease process:
Complications of Mitral Regurgitation
Mitral Regurgitation when mild almost never cause any complications. However, when severe, it may lead to development of:
- Pulmonary Edema
- Pulmonary Hypertension
- Right Heart Failure
- Atrial Fibrillation
- Thromboembolism-Stroke
- Endocarditis
Prognosis
- Patients with asymptomatic chronic severe mitral regurgitation have a high likelihood of developing symptoms or LV dysfunction over the course of 6 to 10 years [1] [2] [3]. However, the incidence of sudden death in asymptomatic patients with normal LV function varies widely among these studies.
- Clinical outcome is poor in patients with severe symptomatic mitral regurgitation with eight year survival rate of 33% without surgical intervention. Heart failure being the common cause with sudden death attributing to ventricular arrhythmia.[4]
- In patients with severe mitral regurgitation due to a flail posterior mitral leaflet, 90% of patients are dead or require MV operation at 10 years with the mortality rate in patients with severe mitral regurgitation being 6% to 7% per year. However, the risk of death are predominantly in patients with a left ventricular ejection fraction <60% or with NYHA functional class III–IV symptoms [1] [5].
- Severe symptoms also predict a poor outcome after mitral valve repair or replacement. Postoperative survival rates in patients with NYHA functional class III–IV symptoms at 5 and 10 years are 73 ± 3% and 48 ± 4%, respectively. While in patients with NYHA functional class I/II symptoms before surgery survival rates at 5 and 10 years are 90 ± 2% and 76 ± 5%, respectively[5].
- In a long-term retrospective study [2], 198 patients with an effective orifice area >40 mm² had a risk of cardiac death at 4% per year during a mean follow-up period of 2.7 years. However, in the another study where 132 patients were followed up prospectively for 5 years, indications for surgery were development of symptoms, LV dysfunction (EF <60%), LV dilatation (LV end-systolic diameter >45 mm), atrial fibrillation, orpulmonary hypertension and there was only 1 cardiac death in an asymptomatic patient, but this patient had refused surgery though it was indicated by development of LV dilation[3]. This suggests good prognosis with valve surgery.
- In 80% of patients with atrial fibrillation greater than or equal to 3 months duration during the pre-operative period had persistence of atrial fibrillation after surgery. Hence, mitral valve repair should be done before or soon after the onset of atrial fibrillation to maximize the chance of postoperative sinus rhythm and avoid long-term anticoagulation with warfarin [6].
