3D echocardiography in mitral valve prolapse
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.

Arrhythmogenic Mitral Valve Prolapse
Arrhythmia & Electrophysiology Review, 2022 Mitral valve prolapse (MVP) is a common condition present in 1–3% of the population. There has been evidence that a subset of MVP patients is at higher risk of sudden cardiac death. The arrhythmogenic mechanism is related to fibrotic changes in the papillary muscles caused by the prolapsing valve.

Mitral valve and left ventricular features in malignant mitral valve prolapse. [PDF]
Open Heart, 2018 Objective: Mitral valve prolapse is a benign condition, however with occasional reports of sudden cardiac death or out-of-hospital cardiac arrest in the absence of severe mitral regurgitation or coronary artery disease, suggesting the existence of a ...

Definitions, 2020 Mitral valve prolapse is a fairly common medical problem that is the focus of some controversy and even confusion among both physicians and those who suffer from it. There is at the same time less to it and more to it than at first appears.

Genetics and pathophysiology of mitral valve prolapse
Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 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.

Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, 2023 Mitral valve prolapse (MVP) is a common clinical condition in the general population. A subgroup of patients with MVP may experience ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death (“arrhythmic mitral valve prolapse” [AMVP]) but how to stratify ...

Iatreia, 1991 The prevalence of mitral valve prolapse was determined en 67 patients with Hashimoto's thyroiditis (TH), and in 48 healthy control individuals. Mitral valve prolapse was found in 14 of 67 (20.9%) patients with TH and in none of the controls. The presence

Circulation. Cardiovascular Interventions, 2022 Background: Recent studies have linked mitral valve prolapse to localized myocardial fibrosis, ventricular arrhythmia, and even sudden cardiac death independent of mitral regurgitation or hemodynamic dysfunction.

Cardiovascular Ultrasound, 2021 Background Mitral valve prolapse is the most frequent valvular defect associated with a wide range of electro-hemodynamic abnormalities, leading to heart failure, arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death. Mitral valve prolapse, first described from Barlow in
