Abstract
We analyzed early predictors of mitral regurgitation after myocardial infarction in 131 consecutive patients with first acute myocardial infarction. Our data revealed that elderly patients with larger infarcts, multivessel coronary disease, and papillary muscle region asynergy are more likely to develop mitral regurgitation in the first year after infarction.Entities:
