Remodeling of the mitral annulus may contribute to progression of mitral regurgitation (MR). In patients with moderate to severe mitral regurgitation short term treatment with a β-blockers has been shown to increase left ventricular end diastolic and end systolic volume and this could deleteriously increase mitral valve annular dimensions. The objective of this study was to quantify the effects of a short duration of β-blocker treatment on mitral annular dimensions and dynamics in patients with mitral regurgitation due to primary degenerative valve disease. Twenty-five patients with moderate to severe degenerative MR and normal left ventricular systolic function were studied in a double blind crossover experiment using a β1-selective adrenergic blocker and placebo administered for 14±3days. Cardiac magnetic resonance images were acquired after each treatment period to quantify mitral annular dimensions. At end diastole (ED) there was no change in annular area (1659±331 vs 1632±299mm2, P<0.19), annular perimeter (154.3±16.4 vs 152±13.9mm, P<0.13), septal-lateral dimension(38.0±5mm vs 39.0±4.5mm, P<0.15), nor annular height (9.8±3.8 vs 9.5±2.5mm, P<0.53). β-blockade resulted in significant ED decreases in commissure-commissure (CC) dimension (48.9 ± 4.6mm vs 47.2 ± 4.0mm P<0.01) and eccentricity (1.3 ± 0.2 vs 1.2 ± 0.1 P<0.01). At end systole (ES), ß-blockade conferred a small, but significant decrease in annular perimeter (161.0±19.3 vs 156.8±16.9mm, P<0.04) and eccentricity (1.2±0.1 vs 1.1±0.1 P<0.02) and the SL dimension significantly increased (41.5±5.7 vs 43.0±5.3mm, P<0.03). CC, annular area, and annular height at ES were not significantly different. Despite significant increases in LVEDV and LVESV, short-term β-blocker treatment of patients with moderate to severe mitral regurgitation reduced or preserved all mitral annular dimensions, except SL at ES.
