Overview
Regurgitation means leaking from a valve that doesn't close all the way. It is caused by diseases that weaken or damage the valve or its supporting structures. Mitral regurgitation becomes chronic when the condition persists rather than occurring for only a short time period. The causes of chronic mitral regurgitation should be distinguished from the acute mitral regurgitation causes.
Common Causes of Mitral Regurgitation
- Acute Mitral Regurgitation.
- Dysfunction or injury to the mitral valve following a heart attack. Papillary muscle rupture or dysfunction that is associated with ST elevation myocardial infarction.
- Infection of the heart valve (infective endocarditis). These conditions may rupture the valve or surrounding structures, leaving an opening for blood to move backwards.
- Trauma.
- Chronic Mitral Regurgitation.
- Mitral valve prolapse now accounts for 45% of cases in the Western world.
- Ischemic heart disease / Coronary artery disease.
- Rheumatic heart disease, in the past, this was the most common cause of MR in the Western world. In developing countries, rheumatic heart disease remains the most common cause.

Complete Differential Diagnosis of the Causes of Mitral Regurgitation
(By organ system)
| Cardiovascular | Balloon valvuloplasty of the mitral valve, dilatation of the left ventricle, causing stretching of the mitral valve annulus and displacement of the papillary muscles [1](causes include aortic insufficiency,dilated cardiomyopathy and Takotsubo cardiomyopathy [2][3]), dysfunction or injury to the mitral valve following a heart attack.
Endomyocardial fibrosis, endocardial cushion defect, heart tumors, high blood pressure, infection of the heart valve (infective endocarditis) [4], ischemic heart disease (coronary artery disease), mitral valve prolapse (accounts for 45% of cases in the western world [5], MVP is a common cause. However, most patients with MVP do not develop severe mitral regurgitation. Older age, male gender, and auscultatory evidence of severe MR are prognostic clues that identify patients with mitral valve prolapse who are at a relatively high risk of complications). Papillary muscle rupture or dysfunction that is associated with ST elevation myocardial infarction [4], rheumatic heart disease (this was the most common cause of MR in the western world) and swelling of the left lower heart chamber. |
