Long-term survival after mitral valve surgery for post-myocardial infarction papillary muscle rupture

Abstract: BackgroundPapillary muscle rupture (PMR) is a rare, but dramatic mechanical complication of myocardial infarction (MI), which can lead to rapid clinical deterioration and death. Immediate surgical intervention is considered the optimal and most rational treatment, despite high risks. In this study we sought to identify overall long-term survival and its predictors for patients who underwent mitral valve surgery for post-MI PMR.MethodsFifty consecutive patients (mean age 64.7 ± 10.8 years) underwent mitral valv… Show more

“…These findings are supported by the fact that preservation of the sub-valvular apparatus and papillary muscle continuity contributes to the improvement of the prognosis in patients with ischemic mitral regurgitation [19]. Consequently, LGE-MRI could be a suitable approach for identifying patients at risk for the development of ischemic mitral valve regurgitation, based on the extent of PM involvement [11].…”

“…Due to the vascular anatomy of the PM, the anterior PM is much less frequently affected [11,27]. The posterior PM was also more frequently affected, with nine patients compared to four with anterior PM involvement.…”

“…[4][5][6] In the vast majority (90%), rupture involves the posteromedial papillary muscle, presumably a consequence of its single source blood supply from either the RCA or LCX coronary artery. 7 In contrast, the anterolateral papillary muscle has a dual source blood supply emanating from both the LAD and LCX coronary arteries, thus providing protection from ischemic rupture.…”

“…PMR is most common with an inferior myocardial infarction, and the posteromedial papillary muscle is most often involved (6 to 12 times more frequently than anterolateral papillary muscle); that's because of its single blood supply through the posterior descending coronary artery (anterolateral papillary has a dual blood supply, instead, from the left anterior descending and left circumflex arteries) [36,37,39].…”
