Mitral Annulus Disjunction and Arrhythmic Mitral Valve Prolapse: Emerging Role of Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging in the Workup

Indian Journal of Radiology and Imaging, 2022
Mitral valve prolapse is a commonly described entity with a highly variable and benign course. However, it is associated with ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death in a small subset of patients.

Mitral Annular Disjunction: Pathophysiology, Pro-Arrhythmic Profile and Repair Pearls

Reviews in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
Mitral annular disjunction (MAD) is a structural abnormality defined by a distinct separation of the mitral valve annulus—left atrial wall continuum and the basal aspect of the posterolateral left ventricle.

Mitral Annular Disjunction: Clinical Implications and Surgical Considerations. [PDF]

Cardiol Res, 2023
Mitral annular disjunction is a cardiac structural abnormality characterized by the distinct separation between the top of the left ventricular myocardium and the mitral annulus supporting the posterior mitral leaflet occurring during systole. It has recently gained wide attention due to the increasing recognition of the link between mitral annular ...

Mitral Annular Disjunction: Case Report and Literature Review. [PDF]

US Cardiol
Mitral annular disjunction (MAD) is an underdiagnosed structural abnormality of the mitral valve apparatus in which the mitral leaflet hinge point is towards the atrium. MAD is associated with mitral valve prolapse and, importantly, increased rates of ventricular arrhythmias, and sudden cardiac death.

Arrhythmic Mitral Valve Prolapse: A Comprehensive Review

Diagnostics, 2023
Mitral valve prolapse (MVP) is a prevalent cardiac disorder that impacts approximately 2% to 3% of the overall population. While most patients experience a benign clinical course, there is evidence suggesting that a subgroup of MVP patients face an ...

Mitral annular disjunction in myxomatous mitral valve disease: a relevant abnormality recognizable by transthoracic echocardiography

Cardiovascular Ultrasound, 2010
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 ...

Mitral Annular Disjunction: Associated Pathologies and Clinical Consequences

Current Cardiology Reports, 2022
To provide an overview of mitral annular disjunction (MAD) and to discuss important challenges in diagnosis and management of MAD.MAD has regained interest in the context of sudden cardiac death (SCD) in patients with mitral valve prolapse (MVP), coined as the "arrhythmic" MVP syndrome.

Echocardiographic description and outcomes in a heterogeneous cohort of patients undergoing mitral valve surgery with and without mitral annular disjunction: a health service evaluation

Echo Research and Practice, 2022
Background Mitral annular disjunction (MAD) is a structural abnormality characterized by the distinct separation of the mitral valve annulus/left atrium wall and myocardium. Little is known about the significance of MAD in patients requiring mitral valve

Mitral Annular Disjunction and Arrhythmic Risk: Case Series and State of the Art. [PDF]

Biomedicines
Background: Mitral annular disjunction (MAD) is an anatomical abnormality associated with an increased risk of major arrhythmic events, regardless of the presence of mitral valve prolapse. Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) plays a key role in diagnosing MAD and identifying myocardial fibrosis, a marker of arrhythmic vulnerability.
