  abstract: Open heart surgery has been in a continuous state of evolution since its earliest day. This book presents information on the management of secondary mitral valve regurgitation, one of most vexing problems to cardiologists, cardiac surgeons and patients. The treatment for primary mitral regurgitation is straightforward and has as its primary aim timely intervention to prevent left ventricular remodelling and left ventricular dysfunction. The management of secondary mitral regurgitation is more challenging as the mitral valve is not the primary cause of the disease. Furthermore, correcting mitral regurgitation without changing the left ventricular geometry is not guaranteed to be either beneficial or curative. Secondary Mitral Valve Regurgitation draws together contributions from a range of experienced cardiac surgeons, cardiologists, anesthetists and scientists to provide comprehensive and authoritative coverage on anatomy, hemodynamics, mechanism, echocardiographic assessment and treatment modalities. Many of the elusive details surrounding the best management of secondary mitral regurgitation are presented in a comprehensive manner so that this book will serve as an important primary source for readers wanting information on this important topic.
  table of contents: Prevalence and definition of secondary mitral valve regurgitation -- Anatomical changes associated with secondary mitral regurgitation: Difference between ischemic and idiopathic cardiomyopathy -- Clinical prognostic value of secondary mitral valve regurgitation -- Functional classification of the secondary mitral valve regurgitation -- Preoperative echocardiographic evaluation of secondary mitral valve regurgitation -- Three-dimensional echocardiographic imaging of secondary mitral valve regurgitation -- Dynamic stress evaluation of secondary mitral valve regurgitation -- Evaluation of secondary mitral valve regurgitation by cardiac magnetic resonance -- Timing and patients selection for surgical repair of secondary mitral valve regurgitation -- Intraoperative echocardiographic imaging during mitral valve repair -- Surgical approaches of secondary mitral regurgitation: Mitral valve restrictive annuloplasty: the ideal strategy -- The role of the “edge-to-edge” mitral valve repair -- Prosthetic ring choice: impact on clinical outcomes and repair results -- Papillary muscles relocation -- Basal chordal cutting -- The Coapsys Device -- The CorCap device -- Role of cardiac resynchronization therapy -- Percutaneous treatment in secondary mitral valve regurgitation -- 2D and 3D echocardiographic imaging during percutaneous mitral clip procedure -- Impact of tricuspid valve regurgitation in patients with secondary mitral valve regurgitation -- Tricuspid valve repair: when and how -- Predictors of recurrent mitral regurgitation after mitral valve repair surgery -- Follow-up after mitral valve repair.
