Shape of the mitral annulus in normal individuals and dilated cardiomyopathies: computational modeling insights into leaflet stress distribution [PDF]
Frontiers in PhysiologyIntroduction: 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]
Journal of Cardiovascular Development and DiseaseMitral 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]
Journal of Cardiothoracic SurgeryBackground 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.

The mitral annulus disjunction as a risk marker in mitral valve prolapse [PDF]
Arch Cardiol Mex, 2020 Disjunction of the mitral valve annulus is a structural abnormality consisting of an atrial displacement of the articulation point of the mitral valve, leading to an altered spatial relationship between the valve and the adjacent posterior ventricular wall. Studies have shown the relationship between mitral annular disjunction, ventricular arrhythmias,
