Abstract

INTRODUCTION Concomitant mitral-regurgitation (MR) is frequently observed in patients undergoing trans-catheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). The predictive value of MR etiology remains to be elucidated. METHODS 600 patients with coincidental MR (≥moderate) undergoing TAVI were categorized according to a modified Carpentier classification [Groups: no/mild MR, n = 477; left atrial (LA) functional MR, n = 18; MR due to left ventricular dilatation, n = 29; degenerative MR, n = 50; MR with restricted leaflet motion n = 26]. MR impro
