Catheter Ablation or Surgical Therapy in Severe Atrial Functional Mitral Regurgitation Caused by Long‐Standing Persistent Atrial Fibrillation—Propensity Score Analysis
Compared with surgical patients, the catheter group had higher atrial fibrillation recurrence and HF readmission rates; however, the difference was not significant after overlap propensity score weighting. Although the proportion of patients with significant mitral regurgitation at the last follow-up was higher after catheter ablation, most patients still showed an effective decrease in mitral regurgitation severity.
