The Impact

Abstract Background Limited information has been reported regarding the impact of percutaneous mitral valve repair (PMVR) on ventricular arrhythmic (VA) burden. The aim of this study was to address the incidence of VA and appropriate antitachycardia implantable cardiac defibrillator (ICD) therapies before and after PMVR. Methods We retrospectively analyzed all consecutive patients with heart failure with reduce left ventricular ejection fraction, functional mitral regurgitation grade 3+ or 4+ and an active ICD or cardiac resynchronizer who underwent PMVR in any of the eleven recruiting centers. Only patients with complete available device VA monitoring from one-year before to one year after PMVR were included. Baseline clinical and echocardiographic characteristics were collected before PMVR and at 12-months follow-up. Results 93 patients (68.2±10.9 years old, male 88.2%) were enrolled. PMVR was successfully performed in all patients and device success at discharge was 91.4%. At 12-months follow-up, we observed a significant reduction in mitral regurgitation severity, NT-proBNP and prevalence of severe pulmonary hypertension and severe kidney disease. Patients also referred a significant improvement in NYHA functional class and showed a non-significant trend to reserve left ventricular remodeling. After PMVR a significant decrease in the incidence of non-sustained ventricular tachycardia (VT) (5.0–17.8 vs 2.7–13.5, p=0.002), sustained VT or ventricular fibrillation (0.9–2.5 vs 0.5–2.9, p=0.012) and ICD antitachycardia therapies (2.5–12.0 vs 0.9–5.0, p=0.033) were observed. Conclusion PMVR was related to a reduction in arrhythmic burden and ICD therapies in our cohort. Proportion of patients who presented ven Funding Acknowledgement Type of funding source: None

Abstract Background Recent studies indicate that careful patient selection is key for the percutaneous edge-to-edge repair via MitraClip procedure. The MIDA Score represents a useful tool for patient selection and is validated in patients with degenerative mitral regurgitation (MR). Aim We here assessed the potential benefit of the MIDA Score for patients with functional or degenerative MR undergoing edge-to-edge mitral valve repair via the MitraClip procedure. Methods In the present study, we retrospectively included 520 patients from three Heart Centers undergoing MitraClip implantation for MR. All parameters of the MIDA Score were available in these patients, consisting of the 7 variables age, symptoms, atrial fibrillation, left atrial diameter, right ventricular systolic pressure, left-ventricular end-systolic diameter, left ventricular ejection fraction. According to the median MIDA-Score of 9 points, patients were stratified in to a high and a low MIDA Score group and association with all-cause mortality was evaluated. Moreover, MR was assessed in echocardiographic controls in 370 patients at discharge, 279 patients at 3-months and 222 patients at 12 months after MitraClip implantation. Results During 2-years follow-up after MitraClip implantation, 69 of 291 (24%) patients with a high MIDA Score and 25 of 229 (11%) patients with a low MIDA Score died. Kaplan-Meier analysis and log rank test showed inferior rates of death in patients with a low score (p<0.001) and multivariate cox regression revealed an odds ratio of 0.54 (0.31–0.95; p=0.032) regarding 2-year survival in this group. Moreover, one point increase in the MIDA Score was associated with a 1.18-fold increase in the risk for mortality (1.02–1.36; p=0.025). Comparing patients with a high MIDA Score and patients with a low score, post-procedural residual moderate/severe MR tended to be more frequent in patients with a high MIDA Score at discharge (53% vs 43%; p=0.061), 3-months (50% vs 40%; p=0.091) and significantly at 12-months follow-up (52% vs 37%; p=0.029). Conclusion The MIDA Mortality Risk Score remained its predictive ability in patients with degenerative or function MR undergoing transcatheter edge-to-edge mitral valve repair. Moreover, a high MIDA score was associated with a higher frequency of post-procedural residual moderate/severe MR, indicating a lower effectiveness of this procedure in these patients.

Mitral Repair

Bulging subaortic septum in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is a potential risk factor for systolic anterior motion after mitral valve repair. Systolic anterior motion may cause postoperative mitral regurgitation and left ventricular outflow tract obstruction despite conservative management. During “minimally invasive endoscopic” and “robotic” mitral repair procedures, systolic anterior motion is prevented with concomitant septal myectomy through the mitral valve orifice. Technically, the exposure of the bulging subaortic septum is traditionally done with detachment of the anterior mitral leaflet from its annulus, leaving a 2-mm rim of leaflet attached to the annulus. The leaflet is then sutured after myectomy. As an alternative technique in robotic surgery, the exposure of the subaortic septum is feasible without anterior leaflet incision with the use of dynamic atrial retractor in mitral repair procedures. Here, we present a patient who underwent concomitant robotic mitral valve repair with posterior chordal implantation, ring annuloplasty, and septal myectomy without anterior leaflet incision using the da Vinci surgical system.

This study compares mitral valve repair and mitral valve replacement with chordal preservation for chronic mitral regurgitation due to myxomatous degeneration with special reference to left ventricular function. Twenty-six patients underwent complete preoperative and 2 years later postoperative echocardiography study. Thirteen patients underwent mitral valve replacement associated with preservation of chordae tendineae and papillary muscles, and 13 patients had mitral valve repair. There were no statistically significant differences between the 2 groups for clinical findings, hemodynamic profiles, or left ventricular function compared prior to surgery. After correcting mitral regurgitation, increase in cardiac index was significant for the repair group. Left ventricular end-diastolic volume decreased in both groups. Left ventricular end-systolic volume significantly decreased in the repair group, but remained unchanged in the replacement group. Both ejection fraction and mean left ventricular circumferential fiber shortening velocity (mVcf) decreased in the replacement group, but significantly increased in the repair group 2 years after surgery. These findings suggest valve replacement with chordal preservation shows less improvement in ventricular systolic function late after surgery compared with mitral valve repair.
