Arrhythmic Mitral Valve Prolapse: Introducing an Era of Multimodality Imaging-Based Diagnosis and Risk Stratification [PDF]

Diagnostics, 2021
Mitral valve prolapse is a common cardiac condition, with an estimated prevalence between 1% and 3%. Most patients have a benign course, but ever since its initial description mitral valve prolapse has been associated to sudden cardiac death.

3D echocardiography in mitral valve prolapse [PDF]

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
Mitral valve prolapse (MVP) is the leading cause of mitral valve surgery. Echocardiography is the principal imaging modality used to diagnose MVP, assess the mitral valve morphology and mitral annulus dynamics, and quantify mitral regurgitation.

Mitral valve prolapse. [PDF]

Annual Review of Medicine, 1976
Mitral valve prolapse is a condition that is being recognized with increased frequency. It is not known whether its incidence is increasing, or whether we are better able to diagnose it today. In the idiopathic or familial variety, the mitral valve pathology is almost always that of myxomatous degeneration. Some authors have suggested the presence of a

Mitral valve prolapse

Primary Care: Clinics in Office Practice, 1979
Mitral valve prolapse, diagnosed by auscultation of typical midsystolic clicks and late systolic murmurs or by echocardiographic demonstration of definite systolic protrusion of the mitral leaflets into the left atrium, is the commonest human abnormality of heart valves, affecting roughly 4 per cent of the population.

Genetics and pathophysiology of mitral valve prolapse. [PDF]

Front Cardiovasc Med, 2023
Mitral valve prolapse (MVP) is a common condition affecting 2–3% of the general population, and the most complex form of valve pathology, with a complication rate up to 10–15% per year in advanced stages.

Mitral annular disjunction in surgical mitral valve prolapse: prevalence, characteristics and outcomes [PDF]

Echo Research and Practice, 2023
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 ...

Stroke in the young: infective endocarditis due to mitral valve prolapse leading to acute ischemic stroke and subsequent hemorrhagic transformation [PDF]

International Journal of Emergency Medicine
Background Stroke in young needs an individualized approach before considering thrombolysis. Here we present a case of undiagnosed mitral valve prolapse presenting with stroke due to associated infective endocarditis.

Mitral valve prolapse in the dog: a model of mitral valve prolapse in man [PDF]

Cardiovascular Research, 2000
Time for primary review 31 days. Mitral valve prolapse (MVP), i.e. abnormal systolic protrusion of mitral valve leaflets into the left atrium, is a common cause of severe mitral regurgitation (MR) requiring operation in people living in industrialized nations [1,2].
