Is mitral regurgitation serious

First: mild reflux, patients with only mild exertional dyspnea. Severe reflux (such as rupture of papillary muscle), acute left heart failure, even cardiogenic shock.

Secondly, normal mitral valve closure depends on the complete structure and normal function of the leaflet, annulus, chordae tendineae, papillary muscle and left ventricle. Any abnormality in these five parts may lead to mitral insufficiency.

Finally: systolic murmur can be found in tricuspid regurgitation, ventricular septal defect, aortic stenosis and left and right ventricular outflow tract obstruction, which should be differentiated. Echocardiography is the most accurate noninvasive method for the diagnosis and evaluation of mitral regurgitation.
