Mitral Leaflet Adaptation to Ventricular Remodeling Occurrence and Adequacy in Patients With Functional Mitral Regurgitation

BACKGROUND: Functional mitral regurgitation (MR) is caused by systolic traction on the mitral leaflets related to ventricular distortion. Little is known about whether chronic tethering causes the mitral leaflet area to adapt to the geometric needs imposed by tethering, in part because of inability...
