BACKGROUND:Many patients with atrial functional mitral regurgitation are not suitable candidates for surgery or transcatheter repair. Technical success and mitral regurgitation reduction from severe to none/trace were achieved in all cases. There were no cases of left ventricular outflow tract obstruction.

Unlike the valves on the left side like the mitral and aortic, right sided valves can have some leak. That is, mild mitral regurgitation and mild aortic regurgitation are less common. Mostly, they are detected on highly sensitive tests like echocardiogram. In echocardiogram, the Doppler beam can detect this small leak.
