Key result
CABG with or without mitral surgery links to 10-year functional improvement and reduced MR severity.
Why the study?
The study aimed to investigate the long-term outcomes of patients with ischemic mitral regurgitation after undergoing CABG with or without mitral valve repair or replacement.

Does CABG with or without mitral valve repair or replacement improve long-term outcomes in patients with ischemic mitral regurgitation?
Surgical interventions including CABG with or without mitral valve repair or replacement effectively improve functional outcomes and reduce MR severity in patients with ischemic mitral regurgitation over a 10-year period.
Vajpeyi et al. (2023) conducted an observational in Ischemic mitral regurgitation (n=68). Coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) with or without mitral valve repair or replacement vs. Between-group comparison (CABG only vs CABG+MVR vs CABG+MVr) was evaluated on Improvement in NYHA functional class and MR status. Coronary artery bypass graft surgery with or without mitral valve repair or replacement effectively improved functional outcomes and reduced MR severity over 10 years in patients with ischemic MR.
