Key result
Mitral valve repair with CABG is linked to higher recurrent MR versus replacement.
Why the study?
The optimal surgical management of ischemic mitral regurgitation is controversial, with limited evidence supporting mitral valve repair versus replacement during concomitant CABG.
Does mitral valve repair compared to mitral valve replacement improve early outcomes in patients undergoing concomitant CABG for ischemic mitral regurgitation?
Population
100 patients undergoing concomitant CABG and mitral valve surgery for IMR
Comparison
MVr vs MVR

Does mitral valve repair compared to mitral valve replacement improve early outcomes in patients undergoing concomitant CABG for ischemic mitral regurgitation?
p-value: p=<0.001
In patients with ischemic mitral regurgitation undergoing CABG, mitral valve repair and replacement have similar early mortality and morbidity, but repair is associated with a higher incidence of residual or recurrent mitral regurgitation.
Ouf et al. (2024) conducted an observational in Ischemic mitral regurgitation (IMR) and coronary artery disease (n=100). Mitral valve repair (MVr) with concomitant CABG vs. Mitral valve replacement (MVR) with concomitant CABG was evaluated on Post-operative residual mitral regurgitation (p=<0.001). Mitral valve repair with concomitant CABG resulted in a significantly higher incidence of residual or recurrent mitral regurgitation compared to mitral valve replacement (p<0.001), with no significant difference in early mortality.
