Late-Onset Systolic Anterior Motion After Mitral Valve Repair

Key Points

• Late-onset systolic anterior motion develops years after mitral valve repair, affecting cardiac function.
• Significant changes in left ventricular reverse remodeling may exacerbate this condition over time.
• Assessment of treatment methods highlighted totally endoscopic ring removal combined with the Alfieri stitch.
• This suggests feasible strategies for addressing complications following cardiac surgery, critical for later patient outcomes.
