ANATOMY OF MITRAL VALVEThe mitral valve is composed of leaflets (valve tissue), mitral annulus, chordae tendineae, papillary muscles, and the left ventricle. The chordae tendineae and papillary muscles form the subvalvular apparatus. Commissures are identified using two anatomical landmarks: the axis of corresponding papillary muscles and the commissural Chordae. The anterior leaflet (aortic leaflet) has a semicircular shape and is attached to two fifths whereas the posterior leaflet (mural leaflet) has a quadrangular shape and is attached to three fifths of the annular circumference.The mitral valve is separated into eight segments . Anterolateral and posteromedial commissures are two segments. Two indentations on the posterior leaflet divide this structure into three anatomically individualized scallops (P1,P2,P3) The anterior leaflet has three corresponding segment( A1,A2,A3). The mitral annulus is attached to the fibrous trigones. The right fibrous trigone is a dense junctional area between the mitral, tricuspid, and noncoronary cusps of the aortic annuli and the membranous septum. The left fibrous trigone is situated at the junction of both left fibrous borders of the aortic and the mitral valve. Marginal chordae (primary chordae) are inserted on the free margin of the leaflets and function to limit leaflet prolapse. Intermediate chordae (secondary chordae) are inserted on the ventricular surface of the leaflets and relieve the valvular tissue of excess tension. Basal chordae (tertiary chordae) are limited to the posterior leaflet. They are attached to the leaflet base and connect it to the mitral annulus and the surrounding myocardial tissue.

Anatomy of mitral valve
Anatomy- cont.
Cause of mitral valvular diseaseCause: MS: Rheumatic fever (Lutembacher syndrome: MS with ASD); congenital very uncommon, seen in infancy, D/D-LA myxoma
MR: Rheumatic fever, infectious endocarditis, mitral valve prolapse, calcification of mitral annulus, collagen vascular disease (SLE, scleroderma), Marfan syndrome, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, amyloidosis, sarcoidosis, LA myxoma, trauma, ischemia, congenital abnormalities
Mitral prolapse: Most frequently occurs as a primary condition; also seen in collagen-vascular disease, Marfan syndrome, von Willebrand's disease, myotonic dystrophy

EpidemiologyEpidemiology: Rheumatic: 2/3 of patients are women; 25% of patients with rheumatic fever develop pure MS; another 40% have MS and MR
(Eur Hrt J 1991;12 suppl B:77)
In a community-based sample, the prevalence of mitral valve prolapse (MVP) was 2.4% . (Nejm 1999;341:1).
Women with MVP outnumber men 2:1.

Severity of MS
Pathophysiology of mitral valve disease
MS: Normal mitral orifice is 5-6 cm2; orifice is reduced in MS due to fusion of commissures and thickening of cusps and/or chordae. A gradient develops when valve area is reduced to 2 cm2. LA pressure ≥ 25 mm Hg when valves ≤ 1 cm2 (critical MS).MR: Disorders of mitral leaflets, chordae, or papillary muscles produce a leak. Impedance to LV emptying in systole is reduced and EF remains normal or increased until LV pump failure develops.Mitral prolapse: Myxomatous proliferation of mitral leaflets and chordae cause billowing of mitral leaflets.
Sutherland, John A. Little Black Book of Cardiology, 2nd Ed,2007, Jones and Bartlett Publishers > Table of Contents > Chapter 8 - Valvular Heart Disease
Presentation of MV diseaseExertional dyspnoea; orthopnoea; palpitations. Symptoms are usually less in chronic MR than in MS but are acute and severe in acute MR. 15% of patients with MS have angina-like chest pain.The frequencies of chest pain and dyspnoea are similar among subjects with and without prolapse.MS: Prominent jugular A wave; RV heave (if RV enlarged); increased S1 and P2; opening snap; diastolic rumble at apex; longer murmur = more severe MSMR: S1 normal or decreased; S2 widely split; P2 increased in pulmonary HT; S3 gallop; late/holosystolic murmur radiating to axilla that varies little with cycle length or inspirationMitral prolapse: Mid-systolic click, late systolic murmur that decreases with squatting, increases with administration of amyl nitrite and Valsalva manoeuvre (strain)Haemoptysis is more common in MS than in MR.MS: Symptoms manifest 15-20 year after an episode of rheumatic fever and progress over 3-4 year.

InvestigationECG: LAE, coarse AF, incomplete RBBB in MS. Only 15% with MR show LAE.Echocardiogram: MS: To confirm dx; determine mean gradient, mitral valve area, PA pressure, and RV dimensions; evaluate valve; identify other valve lesions.Echocardiographic mitral morphology score: Leaflet rigidity, leaflet thickening, valvular calcification, and subvalvular disease are each graded from 1+ to 4+. MR: Initial assessment of MR and LV function and to identify cause; subsequently for periodic measure of LV function and dimensions in asymptomatic patients, for changing symptoms, and after valve repair/replacementIn asymptomatic patients, echo quantification of MR (regurgitant volume, effective regurgitant orifice) predicts clinical outcome .Mitral prolapse: In all patients, to demonstrate systolic billowing of leaflets and to assess severity of MR; repeat study for changing symptoms and/or to follow degree of prolapse and MR and chamber dimensions; for suspected infectious endocarditis

Anticoagulation in MS
Atrial fibrillationLA thrombusH/O thromboembolismSevere MS, LA>55 mm
Indication for surgerySurgery is indicated in symptomatic patients (NYHA class III or IV) with moderate to severe mitral stenosis (MVA <1.5 cm2, gradient> 10 mm Hg) who are not appropriate for, or who have failed balloon valvulotomy.There is also a subset of asymptomatic patients with severe mitral stenosis and severe pulmonary hypertension with no favourable morphology for percutaneous balloon valvulotomy. Mitral valve surgery is recommended in this subgroup of patients in order to prevent right ventricular failure.
In patients with mild asymptomatic mitral stenosis (valve area >1.5 cm2 and mean gradient <5 mm hg), no further evaluation is required after the initial workup. These patients usually remain stable for years and should be treated medically with a close follow up.

MV repair- valve analysisThe entire mitral valve apparatus must be carefully examined to confirm the mechanism of mitral regurgitation, to assess the feasibility of repair, and to plan the exact operative technique. The endocardium of the left atrium is examined for jet lesions, which indicate opposite leaflet prolapse. The mitral annulus is examined to assess the severity of annular dilatation, which can be asymmetrical. The valvular apparatus is examined with a nerve hook to assess tissue pliability and to identify leaflet prolapse or restriction according to segmental valve analysis. The anterior paracommissural scallop of the posterior leaflet (P1) is often intact and rarely prolapsing in patients with degenerative disease. The P1 segment constitutes the reference point. Applying traction to the free edge of other valvular segments and comparing them with P1 determines the extent of leaflet prolapse or restriction

Minimally invasive MV repair- since 1990
According to their increased difficulty, minimally invasive approaches are divided into four categories: limited incision with direct vision (level 1), video-assisted (level 2), video-directed and robot-assisted (level 3), and robotic telemanipulation (level 4).
There are three main approaches to minimally invasive mitral valve repair:Totally Endoscopic Mitral Valve RepairMini-Sternotomy Mitral Valve RepairMini-Thoracotomy Mitral Valve Repair All approaches require putting on a heart-lung machine (cardiopulmonary bypass), but they also all cause less trauma than open heart surgery.
Potential advantages of totally endoscopic mitral valve repair:Shorter hospital stayLess pain and scarring Reduced risk of infectionLess blood loss and need for blood transfusionsFaster recoveryQuicker return to normal activities
