Saline injection test performed during mitral valvuloplasty is popular; however, discrepancies are sometimes noticed between the 'naked eye' findings of regurgitation during the saline injection test and the echocardiographic findings after surgery. These discrepancies may arise due to the geometric differences in the mitral valve-left ventricular complex between the saline-injected left ventricle (LV) and the beating LV. Therefore, to elucidate these differences, we compared the three-dimensional geometries between these two conditions.
