In acute MI secondary to a mechanical defect in the heart ( i . e ., rupture of a papillary muscle or chordae tendineae ), the treatment of choice is mitral valve surgery.

-In tendinous structures chordae tendineae cordis, which connect papillary muscle to the atrioventricular valves in the heart, local absence of Tnmd leads to enhanced angiogenesis, VEGF-A production and MMPs activation.
33.
In obstructive HCM, the mitral leaflets are often large and are anteriorly positioned in the LV cavity due to anteriorly positioned papillary muscles that at surgery are often " agglutinated " onto the LV anterior wall by abnormal attachments.

Side effects of " oral " minoxidil may include swelling of the face and extremities, rapid and irregular heartbeat, lightheadedness, cardiac lesions, and focal necrosis of the papillary muscle and subendocardial areas of the left ventricle.

During this portion of Burch's career, he continued his investigations of fundamental physiological processes underlying cardiovascular disease and delineated diagnostic procedures for certain cardiovascular diseases, including Papillary Muscle Syndrome and the ECG pattern characteristic of certain cerebrovascular diseases.
36.
There are five total papillary muscles in the heart; three in the right ventricle and two in the left . The anterior, posterior, and septal papillary muscles of the right ventricle each attach via chordae tendineae to the tricuspid valve.

38.
The term parachute mitral valve stems from the morphological appearance of the valve; that is to say, the mitral valve leaflets appear as the canopy of the parachute, the chordae as the strings and the papillary muscle as the harness.
39.
The "'chordae tendinae ( tendinous chords ) "', colloquially known as the "'heart strings "', are cord-like tendons that connect the papillary muscles to the tricuspid valve and the mitral valve in the heart.
40.
There are two general categories of approaches to mitral valve repair : Resection of the prolapsed valvular segment ( sometimes referred to as the'Carpentier'approach ), and installation of artificial chordae to " anchor " the prolapsed segment to the papillary muscle ( sometimes referred to as the'David'approach ).
