Mitral annulus disjunction is associated with adverse outcome in Marfan and Loeys–Dietz syndromes [PDF]
Abstract Aims We aimed to assess the prevalence of mitral annulus disjunction (MAD) and to explore the association with aortic disease and mitral valve surgery in patients with Marfan syndrome (MFS) and Loeys–Dietz syndrome (LDS). Methods and results

Shape of the mitral annulus in normal individuals and dilated cardiomyopathies: computational modeling insights into leaflet stress distribution [PDF]
Introduction: The mitral valve annulus naturally adopts a saddle shape in systole, likely concentrating systolic stress on the commissures where fibrous trigones are located.

Mitral Annular Disjunction: Epidemiology, Diagnostic Methods, Prognosis, and Novel Implications [PDF]
Mitral annular disjunction (MAD) is an increasingly recognized structural abnormality of the mitral valve apparatus, often associated with mitral valve prolapse and a heightened risk of ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death. It is defined by a

A report on the successful sparing of the entire anterior mitral leaflet through the implementation of a customized procedure in the context of mitral valve replacement [PDF]
Background Mitral valve replacement (MVR) in patients with complex mitral valve (MV) pathology often necessitates excision of the anterior mitral leaflet (AML), potentially compromising left ventricular (LV) geometry and function.
