비후성 심근증에서 승모판 폐쇄부전증의 연구

Abstract

It has been suggested that mitral regurgitation(MR) of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is associated with left ventricular outlet pressure gradient, systolic anterior motion of mitral leaflet, abnormal coaptation of mitral valve, malalignment of papillary muscle and elongation of mitral leaflet. To investigate the relation between the degree of MR and the several causing factors, we reviewed 35 patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
