Popis: Highlights Atrial secondary mitral regurgitation is highly prevalent amongst patients with at least moderate-severe mitral regurgitation. Patients with atrial secondary mitral regurgitation are older, more likely to be female and usually have atrial fibrillation. Outcomes were poor, but much of this was related to advanced age and co-morbidities. Optimal treatments for atrial secondary mitral regurgitation are unknown but should be tailored to the distinct characteristics of this population.
