Abstract:
Objective To investigate the structural and functional changes of mitral valve in patients with functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) by real-time three-dimensional transthoracic echocardiography (RT-3D-TTE).Methods RT-3D-TTE were performed on 70 patients with at least moderate mitral regurgitation (FMR group;including 35 cases of ischemic cardiomyopathy [ICM] subgroup and 35 cases of dilated cardiomyopathy [DCM] subgroup) and 30 normal controls (control group).The mitral valve parameters were analyzed by TomTec assessment software to detect dynamic changing pattern of mitral valve size and shape during cardiac systole.The differences of parameters between control group and FMR group were compared.The parameters included mitral annulus structural parameters:Anterior-posterior (AP),anterolateral-posteromedial (AL-PM),sphericity (SPI;SPI=AP/AL-PM),annular circumference (AC),commissural diameter (CD),nonplanarity angle (NPA),annular height (AH),tenting height (TH),tenting volume (TV),three-dimensional annular area (AA3D);dynamic parameters..Maximum annular displacement (ADmax),maximum annular displacement velocity (ADVmax).Results The mitral valve parameters present phasic variation law in FMR group.Compared with control group,AH,ADmax and ADVmaxwere smaller and the other parameters were larger than those in FMR group (all P＜0.05).Compared with control group,AH,ADmax and ADVmax were smaller and the other parameters were larger than those in both ICM subgroup and DCM subgroup (all P＜0.05).Compared with ICM subgroup,AH was smaller in DCM subgroup (P＜0.05),there was no statistical difference in ADmax and ADVmax between ICM subgroup and DCM subgroup (P＞0.05),the rest parameters were greater in DCM group (all P＜0.05).Conclusion RT-3D-TTE can be used to quantitatively assess the structural and functional changes of mitral valve in patients with FMR and provide a reference for the clinical treatment of FMR.
