Arrhythmogenic Mitral Valve Prolapse
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.

The Incidence of Mitral Valve Prolapse and Mitral Valve Regurgitation in Patient with Secundum Atrial Septal Defect [PDF]
Background: Association between secundum atrial septal defect (ASD) and mitral valve disease has been recognized for many years. Noninvasive studies indicate a high incidence of mitral valve prolapse (37-70 percent) in these patients.

How to manage an athlete with mitral valve prolapse.
INTRODUCTION Under the term degenerative mitral valve prolapse different pathophysiological and clinical entities coexist in a spectrum ranging from Barlow's disease to fibroelastic deficiency, and represent the most common cause of mitral regurgitation ...

ABSTRACT Alcohol septal ablation (ASA) is an established treatment for hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM). However, conventional techniques may be challenging in cases with complex septal branch anatomy, including hairpin curves, extremely small branches, and acute angle bifurcations.

Abstract Aims Functional tricuspid regurgitation (FTR) associated with degenerative mitral regurgitation (DMR) accentuates the severity of heart failure and is a marker of poor prognosis. Little is known about FTR associated with asymptomatic DMR. Methods and results The study included 1249 asymptomatic patients with moderate or severe DMR from the ...

Assessment of Left Atrial Deformation and Function by 2-Dimensional Speckle Tracking Echocardiography in Healthy Dogs and Dogs With Myxomatous Mitral Valve Disease [PDF]
open7noBackground: The assessment of left atrial (LA) function by 2-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) holds important clinical implications in human medicine. Few similar data are available in dogs.

Dapagliflozin effect on functional mitral regurgitation and myocardial remodelling: The DEFORM trial
Abstract Aims Functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) is associated with adverse outcomes in patients with heart failure, and current guideline‐directed medical therapy (GDMT) offers limited efficacy in managing FMR. This study aims to evaluate the therapeutic impact of the sodium‐glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor (SGLT2i) dapagliflozin in patients with ...

Two myths have been prevalent regarding heart valve disease: that the valves are simply mechanical flaps, and that the importance to the patient of regurgitation in particular relates almost entirely to ventricular function only.
