The ‘Down-Under Repair’ for Ischaemic Mitral Regurgitation
چکیده انگلیسی

Current surgical management of restrictive ischaemic mitral regurgitation (IMR) includes mitral valve annuloplasty (MVA) using an undersized ring when the mechanism is secondary to leaflet restriction. In our experience, MVA alone is inadequate to eliminate mitral incompetence in these patients. We report the ‘Down-Under Repair’ as an adjunctive concept for the treatment of a subset of patients with restrictive IMR and associated inferobasal left ventricular aneurysm. The ‘Down-Under Repair’ reduces mitral leaflet restriction by approximating the origin of the posterior papillary muscle towards the mitral annulus. Midterm results demonstrated sustained valvular competence and symptomatic improvement.
