Left Ventricular Abnormalities in Prolapsed Mitral Leaflet Syndrome

Left ventricular abnormalities in prolapsed mitral leaflet syndrome. Review of eighty-seven cases.

Eighty-seven patients with proven mitral leaflet prolapse were studied emphasizing cardiodynamics and left ventricular asynergy. Significant associated features were female preponderance (83%), skeletal anomalies (pectus excavatum, straight back, scoliosis, narrow antero-posterior diameter of the chest), and anomalous coronary arteries (cork-screw patterns, short left main coronary artery, anom...

Idiopathic prolapsed mitral leaflet syndrome. Angiographic-clinical correlations.

Angiographic clinical correlations were made in 59 patients with prolapsed mitral leaflet syndrome. Eight had nonejection systolic clicks (group I), 20 had early, mid or late systolic murmurs with or without a systolic click (group II), and 31 had pansystolic murmurs (group III). Isolated prolapse of posterior leaflet (PL) scallops occurred in 42 and 17 had combined leaflet prolapse. The study ...

Prolapsed Mitral Valve Syndrome is a common, benign disorder with prevalence of %0.3-6 in population. This syndrome also is known as Barlows Syndrome and Flaapy Mitral Valve Syndrome. Prolapsed Mitral Valve is the dropping of one or two mitral valve leaflet(s) into the left atrium during ventricular systole. This malformation leads to incomplete closing of mitral valve and regurgitates the bloo...
