Overview
Brief Summary
Ischemic mitral regurgitation (MR) and coronary artery disease is common and associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Ischemic MR has been traditionally treated surgically through either valve repair or replacement at the time of concomitant bypass grafting. Although patients with ischemic MR represent a heterogeneous group, outcomes for these patients over the intermediate term is poor owing to left ventricle (LV) dysfunction causing MR and the presence of coronary disease, which portends poor survival. There is an emergence of percutaneous therapies to treat MR which have been shown to be a less invasive, safe, and viable approach to treat comorbid patients.
The decision to treat ischemic MR either surgically or percutaneously is influenced by the presence of coronary disease and the ability to provide adequate revascularization. Mitral valve surgery concomitant to surgical revascularization, however, is associated with a several fold increase in mortality. In fact, the incremental risk increase is further magnified in high-risk patients. We therefore propose a novel prospective study to guide intervention for ischemic MR. Patients will be randomized to undergo surgical therapy with either mitral repair/replacement and/or concomitant coronary artery bypass grafting OR percutaneous mitral repair, followed by coronary artery bypass grafting.

Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria

- •Presence of reversible myocardial ischemia confirmed by preoperative myocardial viability study using radionuclide imaging.
Exclusion Criteria
- •Patients with mixed mitral valve pathology, including fibroelastic deficiency, rheumatic valve disease, ruptured mitral valve chordae, mitral valve endocarditis.
- •Patients with acute ischemic MR, defined as MR caused by papillary muscle infarction and rupture.
- •Age \< 18 years.
- •Prohibitive surgical risk or contraindications to Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) as defined by the Heart Team.
- •Need for a concomitant surgical procedure, excluding Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), tricuspid valve repair, Patent foramen ovale (PFO) closure, Atrial septal defect (ASD) closure and Maze procedure.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Hospitalization rate for congestive heart failure
Time Frame: Within 12 months of intervention
Admission to hospital with congestive heart failure exacerbation being the primary reason for admission. Congestive heart failure exacerbation is defined as 1) evidence of fluid overload and elevated filling pressures (for example, a central venous pressure \> 8mmHg and/or a pulmonary capillary wedge pressure \> 18mmHg) and/or 2) new decrease in cardiac output (for example, cardiac index \< 2.2 L/min/m2) and end-organ perfusion (measured by one or more of: urine output \< 20mL/hr, lactate \>= 2.0, mixed venous oxygen saturation \< 70%).
Rate of myocardial infarction
Time Frame: Within 12 months of intervention
These will be defined according to the Fourth Universal Definition of Myocardial Infarction
Mortality rate
Time Frame: Within 12 months of intervention
All-cause mortality. Death from cardiovascular and non-cardiovascular causes.
Rate of Stroke
Time Frame: Within 12 months of intervention
1\) New, acute focal neurological deficit thought to be of vascular origin with signs or symptoms lasting \> 24 h and confirmed by a neurologist or 2) new, focal neurological deficit lasting \> 24 h with imaging evidence of cerebral infarction or intracerebral hemorrhage.
Secondary Outcomes
- Presence of recurrent MR ≥2+(Within 6 and12 months of intervention)
- Change in indexed left atrial volume(Within 6 and12 months of intervention)
- Rate of mitral valve re-intervention(Within12 months of intervention)
- Degree of left ventricular remodeling(Within 6 and12 months of intervention)
