[Correction of mitral regurgitation in conditions of surgical treatment of coronary heart disease].

It was the purpose of this search to announce that elaborating an optimal tactics for patients with coronary heart disease (CHD), complicated with ischemic mitral regurgitation (IMR). There were operated 85 patients with CHD and IMR in the course of 2006-2008. Previously all patients were separated on 3 groups in dependence of severity of IMR, character of damage of coronary race and changing of left ventricle. In the first and the second groups was realized an aorta-coronary shunting with annuloplasty. In the third group was realized an isolated shunting. Mortality in hospital was zero percents. A rudimentary regurgitation was noted by 10% of patients of the 1st group. The maximum period of monitoring was 24 months. Freedom from mitral regurgitation for the 1st and 2nd group was 95%, for the 3rd--93%. So, adequate and mutual estimation of flap-connected factors as well as condition of coronary race by the patients with IMR reduces the risk of by-pass mitral regurgitation and shows good short-term and long-term results.
