Inheritance Impacts Mitral Valve Insufficiency [PDF]
As the field of cardiovascular genetics continues to evolve, traditional Mendelian disorders are more readily characterized by clinical genetic testing. These conditions are caused by rare DNA mutations with major effects for most, if not all carriers.

Reconstructive surgery of idiopathic hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, systolic anterior motion and severe mitral regurgitation [PDF]
Hypertrophie obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM) is an idiopathic disease frequently associated with systolic anterior motion (SAM). The anterior leaflet of mitral valve is sucked by Ventury effect into the left ventricle outflow tract making subaortic ...
