Impairment of Valvular Mechanics Due to Pedunculated Atrial Tumors

Y.C. Agrawal, F.C.S. Lee, J.A. Abbott, L. Talbot · Cardiology · 2008

Model experiments demonstrated that pedunculated atrial tumors, approximately the diameter of a mitral valve, caused atrioventricular stenosis and regurgitation. Since the impairment of valvular mechanics increased at faster heart rates, intentional slowing of the heart may offer a potentially beneficial adjuvant tosurgical therapy
