Background There is a paucity of literature regarding outcomes of patients with mitral valve prolapse (MVP) and mitral annular disjunction (MAD) after mitral surgery, with many unanswered questions including the post-surgical persistence of MAD, effect ...

Recent studies have described the occurrence of complex ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death among patients with mitral valve prolapse (MVP). The reported incidence rate of sudden cardiac death or ventricular tachycardia is about 1–1.5% among

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: Clinical Implications and Surgical Considerations. [PDF]
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: Pathophysiology, Pro-Arrhythmic Profile and Repair Pearls
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: Case Report and Literature Review. [PDF]
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
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 prolapsing volume is associated with increased cardiac dimensions in patients with mitral annular disjunction [PDF]
Introduction In patients with mitral annular disjunction (MAD), it can be difficult to assess the severity of mitral regurgitation (MR), as they present with a prolapsing volume (i.e.

ObjectivesThis study aimed to describe the heterogeneous extension of mitral annular disjunction (MAD) and assess the hypotesis that different phenotypes of disjunction are not associated with increased surgical challenges.BackgroundMitral regurgitation (

Dark papillary muscles sign in a patient with arrhythmogenic mitral valve prolapse: a case report
Introduction. Recently, a subgroup of patients with mitral valve prolapse has been identified with an increased risk of ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death.
