Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Patients who underwent surgery for atrial functional mitral regurgitation from January 2020 to December 2022 will be enrolled in the trial.

Patients will undergo
- Transthoracic echocardiogram (TTE)
- Electrocardiogram (ECG)
- Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ-12) (approximately 20 minutes)

Patients perioperative data (type of Surgery, concomitant procedure, cardiopulmonary bypass time (CPB) time, aortic cross clamp time) will be collected retrospectively from medical records.

Summary
Brief summary
Functional mitral regurgitation in patients with or without atrial fibrillation without left ventricular dysfunction and/or dilatation, namely, atrial functional mitral regurgitation (AFMR), has been increasingly recognized. It occurs in the setting of left atrial dilatation and or atrial fibrillation in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). However, there are very limited published data regarding therapeutic strategies of AFMR. We aim to understand the optimal therapeutic options by investigating the outcomes of previously treated patients when this concept was not well recognized.
