Echocardiographically normalized left ventricular internal diameter in diastole (LVIDDN), mitral E wave velocity, the ratio of the left atrial dimension to the aortic annulus dimension (LA\/Ao) and tricuspid regurgitation velocity were significantly decreased after surgery (p\u2009&amp;lt;\u20090.01). Complete resolution of preoperative clinical signs was achieved in 71.4% of dogs after surgery.
