The ability to predict early postoperative left ventricular size and function in patients with isolated aortic or mitral regurgitation was determined utilizing multigated blood pool imaging before and 2 to 4 weeks after valve replacement (aortic valve, 20 patients; mitral valve, 20 patients). Early postoperatively, ejection fraction decreased significantly (p <0.001) in both patient groups (from 0.55 ± 12 to 0.40 ± 0.14 [mean ± 1 standard deviation] in patients with aortic regurgitation and from 0.66 ± 0.09 to 0.48 ± 0.11 in patients with mitral regurgitation). The decrease in ejection fraction was associated with a large decrease in stroke volume with minimal or no change in end-systolic volume; it was unrelated to the preoperative ejection fraction. Early postoperative ejection fraction correlated best with preoperative end-systolic volume and was normal in 14 (67 percent) of 21 patients with a preoperative ejection fraction above 0.60; 4 (27 percent) of 15 patients with a preoperative ejection fraction of 0.50 to 0.60; and in 0 of 4 patients with a preoperative ejection fraction below 0.50 (p <0.05). In addition, a repeated scan in 16 patients late (1 to 2 years) after operation showed a further reduction in endsystolic volume in patients with aortic regurgitation with an increase in ejection fraction toward preoperative values. There was no significant change in patients with mitral regurgitation.End-diastolic volume decreased significantly (p <0.001) early postoperatively (from 162 ± 60 to 102 ± 41 ml/m2in patients with aortic regurgitation and from 131 ± 40 to 78 ± 30 ml/m2in patients with mitral regurgitation). This decrease was closely related to a decrease in stroke volume and was unrelated to preoperative ejection fraction. Early postoperative end-diastolic volume correlated best with the preoperative end-systolic volume. The major part of the reduction in end-diastolic volume occurred within 2 weeks of valve replacement.Removal of chronic left ventricular volume overload due to aortic or mitral regurgitation produces a decrease in ejection fraction and end-diastolic volume. The early reduction is in part a result of altered loading conditions and may not necessarily imply alterations in myocardial contractile function. The reduction in ejection fraction appears to persist in patients with mitral regurgitation.
