Myxoma of the mitral valve [PDF]
Only rarely do myxomas originate from the mitral valve. This is the report of a 49-year-old woman presenting with congestive heart failure. The diagnosis of an intracardiac tumor involving the anterior cuspid of the mitral valve was made by transesophageal echocardiography.

Echocardiography of the mitral valve
Mitral valve disease is the second most common valvular heart disease after the aortic valve worldwide. Mitral valve has historically been a structure of interest by pioneers in echocardiography. One of the earliest applications of echocardiography was in the diagnosis of valvular heart disease, particularly mitral stenosis.

Mitral Valve Prolapse, Ventricular Arrhythmias, and Sudden Death.
Despite a 2% to 3% prevalence of echocardiographically defined mitral valve prolapse (MVP) in the general population, the actual burden, risk stratification, and treatment of the so-called arrhythmic MVP are unknown. The clinical profile is characterized

Primary cilia defects causing mitral valve prolapse
Genetic variations in primary cilia genes cause defects during valve morphogenesis that can progress to mitral valve prolapse in the adult. DZIPping along to diagnosis Mitral valve prolapse is a common congenital abnormality that can cause severe ...

This study develops a human engineered heart tissue‐derived model of diabetic cardiomyopathy that accurately replicates the dynamic changes in the structural, contractile, and electrophysiological properties of the myocardium. Furthermore, this model is used to confirm the direct protective effects of empagliflozin on the heart through an SGLT2 off ...
