Mitral valve replacement versus mitral valve repair : a Doppler and quantitative stress echocardiographic study

Standard mitral valve replacement (MVR) in patients with chronic mitral regurgitation results in consistent reductions in resting postoperative ejection fraction. This has been attributed to removal of the low-impedance ejection pathway into the left atrium or to disruption of the chordal apparatus....
