Mitral Anterior Leaflet Perforation Due to Jet Flow in Aortic Valve Insufficiency [PDF]
Mitral valve disease is one of the most common pathologies of heart valve diseases. Mitral regurgitation may develop due to pathologies in the valve apparatus (primary regurgitation) or due to pathologies related to the atrium and/or ventricle (secondary
