Saddle Shape of the Mitral Annulus Reduces Systolic Strains on the P2 Segment of the Posterior Mitral Leaflet

BACKGROUND: The three-dimensional saddle shape of the mitral annulus is well characterized in animals and humans, but the impact of annular nonplanarity on valve function or mechanics is poorly understood. In this study, we investigated the impact of the saddle shaped mitral annulus on the mechanics...
