Papillary Muscle Dysfunction

心内科

Common symptoms

腱索断裂、休克、收缩期杂音、气短、乳头肌断裂、心悸、心绞痛

The pathology of disease

Papillary muscle dysfunction is malfunction of a mitral-valve papillary muscle, most often due to ischemia or myocardial infarction, causing mitral regurgitation. Clinical: murmur, dyspnea, heart failure. Treatment: treat underlying ischemia (revascularization); heart-failure therapy; mitral-valve surgery (repair/replacement) for severe symptomatic regurgitation; differentiate from papillary muscle rupture (emergency).

Common Symptoms

Dyspnea/heart failure; mitral regurgitation murmur; history of ischemia/MI

Causes and Pathogenesis

Ischemia/infarction impairs papillary muscle function, causing mitral regurgitation.

Treatment

Treat ischemia/revascularization; GDMT for HF; surgery for severe regurgitation

Preventive Measures

Secondary prevention after MI; treat ischemia.
