Mitral valve cleft gapping mechanism in functional mitral regurgitation: An in-vitro study
Background and aim: Gapping formation of the mitral valve cleft is unknown. The objective of this study was to quantify the geometry of mitral valve cleft coaptation in the asymmetric and symmetric papillary muscles (PMs) positions in a dilated annulus in order to reveal mitral valve gapping mechani...
