Abstract
Aim. To choose the method of correcting a moderate ischemic mitral regurgitation (IMR) in patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy is an actual task of modern cardiosurgery. Materials and methods. The results of treatment of 75 patients with chronic postinfarction left ventricular aneurysm (CLVA) and moderate annuloectasia-caused ischemic mitral regurgitation operated in 2007–2008 were studied. Results. All patients underwent coronary shunting, left ventricular aneurysm resection with Dor’s remodeling, 26 patients – transventricular sutural segmental annuloplasty of posterior mitral valve semi-circumference, 49 – mitral ring annuloplasty. The obtained results (three-year observation period) prove the comparable efficiency of both mitral reconstruction techniques used for liquidation of a moderate ischemic mitral regurgitation. Conclusion. The procedure of transventricular sutural segmental annuloplasty of posterior semi-circumference of the mitral valve (MV) is easy to perform and provides satisfactory hemodynamic indices.
