Anatomical features of acute mitral valve repair dysfunction: Additional value of three-dimensional echocardiography

Arch Cardiovasc Dis. 2017 Mar;110(3):196-201. doi: 10.1016/j.acvd.2016.12.007. Epub 2017 Feb 14.

Abstract

Recurrence of mitral regurgitation after mitral valve repair is correlated with unfavourable left ventricular remodelling and poor outcome. This pictorial review describes the echocardiographic features of three types of acute mitral valve repair dysfunction, and the additional value of three-dimensional echocardiography.
