Herein, we compared the efficacy of restrictive mitral annuloplasty (RMA) alone with that of RMA combined with SVR in patients with functional mitral regurgitation (MR).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods and results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>One hundred and six patients with ischaemic cardiomyopathy underwent RMA with (n\u2009=\u200952) or without SVR (n\u2009=\u200954) for functional MR. Pre- and post-operative (1\u2009month) left ventriculography and longitudinal measurements of plasma BNP were performed. Pre-operatively, patients who underwent RMA plus SVR had a larger LVESVI (126\u2009\u00b1\u200926 vs. 100\u2009\u00b1\u200924 mL\/m2, P\u2009&amp;lt;\u20090.0001). After surgery, RMA plus SVR reduced LVESVI more than RMA alone (43% vs. 22%, P\u2009&amp;lt;0.0001), yielding a nearly identical post-operative LVESVI (71\u2009\u00b1\u200917 vs. 78\u2009\u00b1\u200926 mL\/m2). Survival rate was not different between the groups (4-year survival, 62% vs. 62%, P\u2009=\u20090.99), though among patients with pre-operative LVESVI ranging from 105 to 150 mL\/m2, that was higher in the RMA plus SVR group (73% vs. 40%, P\u2009=\u20090.046), accompanied by a larger percentage reduction in plasma BNP from baseline to the latest follow-up examination (63\u2009\u00b1\u200934% vs. 34\u2009\u00b1\u200946%, P\u2009=\u20090.012). After propensity score adjustment, patients with LVESVI ranging from 105 to 150 mL\/m2 who underwent RMA alone showed a greater association with mortality (hazard ratio 7.5, 95% confidence interval 2.1\u201327, P\u2009=\u20090.010), as compared with those with LVESVI &amp;lt;105 mL\/m2 who underwent RMA alone.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>RMA plus SVR reduced LVESVI to a greater degree than RMA alone, neutralizing anticipated worse prognosis.
