highly eccentric mitral regurgitation jet with direction to the lateral wall [of the left atrium]
This is the entire phrase you asked for, including "highly" and "leteral". Need to include it, especially since they mention the term "wall hugger" in brackets.
Eccentric jets imly an organic cause (as opposed to the functional cause) of MR.

(highly eccentric) wall-hugging jet
English has a term for highly eccentric jets, wall-hugging, which is in brackets at the end. The German has to spell this out in detail, because German readers might not know what the English term means.
Also, the German says 'jet', not 'mitral regurgitation jet'.
There's no need to add 'mitral regurgitation' in the English.

I put 'highly eccentric' in brackets because it's redundant, since that's what 'wall-hugging' means. However, you may want to leave it in, as omitting it might look like a mistake.

: I agree that "MR" can be omitted, but I do not agree that "lateral" should be left out since hugging jets can also "hug" the medial wall of the left atrium.

It doesn't matter what they hug - they're still lateral.
