Background: Two subtypes of atrial functional mitral regurgitation (AFMR) have been described, one is characterized by Carpentier type I and the other by Carpentier type IIIb leaflet motion.

Objectives: The authors sought to analyze echocardiographic characteristics and outcomes of AFMR subtypes undergoing mitral valve transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (M-TEER).

Methods: Of 1,047 consecutive patients who underwent M-TEER, the authors identified those with isolated mitral annulus dilation (Carpentier I), termed AFMR-IAD, and those with atriogenic hamstringing characterized by restricted posterior mitral leaflet motion (Carpentier IIIb), termed AFMR-AH.
