Journal ArticleDOI
Integrated mechanism for functional mitral regurgitation: leaflet restriction versus coapting force: in vitro studies.
TL;DR: Functional mitral regurgitation also paradoxically decreases in midsystole, despite peak transmitral driving pressure, suggesting a change in the force balance acting to create a regurgitant orifice, with rising transmitral pressure counteracting forces that restrict leaflet closure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of a saddle shaped annulus on mitral valve function and chordal force distribution: an in vitro study.
TL;DR: A saddle shaped annulus redistributes the forces on the chords by altering coaptation geometry, leading to an optimally balanced anatomic/physiologic configuration.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanism of Mitral Regurgitation in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy: Mismatch of Posterior to Anterior Leaflet Length and Mobility
Ehud Schwammenthal,Satoshi Nakatani,Shengqiu He,Joanne Hopmeyer,Alex Sagie,Arthur E. Weyman,Harry M. Lever,Ajit P. Yoganathan,James D. Thomas,Robert A. Levine +9 more
TL;DR: In hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, a spectrum of mitral leaflet abnormalities has been related to the mechanism of the mitral systolic anterior motion (SAM), which causes both subaortic obstruc...
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanistic insights into functional mitral regurgitation.
Robert A. Levine,Judy Hung,Yutaka Otsuji,Emmanuel Messas,Noah Liel-Cohen,Nadia Nathan,Mark D. Handschumacher,J. Luis Guerrero,Shengqiu He,Ajit P. Yoganathan,Gus J. Vlahakes +10 more
TL;DR: A comprehensive understanding of the valve in its ventricular context provides new opportunities for successful valve repair in patients, and new and potentially more effective strategies directly address tethering.
Journal Article
Mitral leaflet geometry perturbations with papillary muscle displacement and annular dilatation: an in-vitro study of ischemic mitral regurgitation.
TL;DR: Leaflet geometry during systole is affected by subvalvular structures and direct visualization of leaflet perturbation under these simulated pathological conditions may promote understanding of mechanisms present in ischemic MR.
