Mitral Annular Disjunction in Heritable Thoracic Aortic Disease: Insights From the Montalcino Aortic Consortium [PDF]
Background Mitral annular disjunction (MAD), posterior displacement of the mitral valve leaflet hinge point, predisposes to arrhythmias or sudden cardiac death. We evaluated the burden of MAD, mitral valve prolapse (MVP), and mitral regurgitation (MR) by

Mitral annular disjunction : associated pathologies and clinical consequences
Purpose of Review To provide an overview of mitral annular disjunction (MAD) and to discuss important challenges in diagnosis and management of MAD. Recent Findings MAD has regained interest in the context of sudden cardiac death (SCD) in patients with ...

Background Mitral annular disjunction (MAD) consists of an altered spatial relation between the left atrial wall, the attachment of the mitral leaflets, and the top of the left ventricular (LV) free wall, manifested as a wide separation between the ...

The added value of three-dimensional transthoracic echocardiography in mitral annular disjunction: a case report [PDF]
BackgroundMitral annular disjunction (MAD) refers to the arrhythmic mitral valve prolapse (MVP) syndrome associated with ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death. Although the pathophysiology of this disease is still under investigation, specific
