Abstract:
The surgical management of mitral valve disease is undergoing rapid development, with various treatment options available. Increasing evidence has emerged on the optimal strategy for the management of secondary mitral regurgitation, a condition characterised by ventricular pathology. This review discusses surgical treatments for secondary mitral regurgitation. Currently, there is no consensus on the optimal strategy for the treatment of patients with secondary mitral regurgitation. Management of this condition requires a dedicated heart team to ensure the most favourable outcome by tailoring interventions to individual patients. The aim of this narrative review is to compare available interventions for secondary mitral regurgitation.
