Efficacy of Polymer Injection for Ischemic Mitral Regurgitation: Persistent Reduction of Mitral Regurgitation and Attenuation of Left Ventricular Remodeling

OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to examine the chronic effects of polyvinyl-alcohol (PVA) injection on mitral regurgitation (MR) reduction, mitral valve geometry, and left ventricular (LV) remodeling in a chronic ischemic MR sheep model. BACKGROUND: Previous studies have demonstrated acute eff...
