Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Reduced coaptation of mitral valve (MV) is a risk for developing functional mitral regurgitation (MR). We determined if MV leaflet area is associated with MV coaptation zone-area, and to identify the clinical factors associated with mitral leaflet size and coaptation-zone area in patients with the normal left ventricle (LV) systolic function and size, by real-time 3D echocardiography. In 175 patients with normal LV size and ejection fraction, there was a significant relationship between MV leaflet and coaptation-zone areas. MV leaflet area was strongly associated with body surface area (BSA) (r =0.907, p<0.001) rather than LV size and age. In 68 patients, we also found that MV coaptation-zone area/BSA was independently associated with the severity of atherosclerosis assessed by cardio-ankle vascular index (CAVI) (r=-0.964, p<0.001), suggesting atherosclerotic change might reduce MA area resulting in generation of functional MR.
