Floppy Mitral Valve, Mitral Valve Prolapse, and Mitral Valvular Regurgitation.

It is well recognized that the floppy mitral valve (FMV) complex is the central issue in the FMV, mitral valve prolapse (MVP), and mitral valvular regurgitation (MVR) story. MVP associated with the FMV results from the systolic movement of portions or segments of the FMV complex into the left atrium (LA). Prolapse of the FMV results in unique forms of mitral valvular dysfunction and MVR. When t...

Bioprosthetic Mitral Valve Regurgitation

The usefulness of two-dimensional color-Doppler flow-imaging (2D Doppler) in the detection, localization, and quantitation of bioprosthetic mitral valve regurgitation is uncertain. Mitral bioprostheses, before and after the creation of transvalvular (n = 33), paravalvular (n = 17), or combined (n = 23) defects, were mounted in a pulsed duplication system (flow rates, 2.5-6.5 1/min; pulse rate, ...

Mitral valve prolapse and regurgitation.

The study by Wilcken and Hickey' in Circulation and the accompanying editorial comment by Devereux2 indicated that mitral valve prolapse (MVP) leads to severe mitral regurgitation (MR) much more frequently in men than in women. Both studies seemed to attribute the sex difference to higher blood pressure in men than women, as suggested by Roberts.3 However, Roberts' conclusion that the number of...
