Ventricular arrhythmias associated with mitral valve prolapse (MVP) and the capacity to
cause sudden cardiac death (SCD), referred to as 'malignant MVP', are an increasingly …

Abstract Purpose of Review To provide an overview of mitral annular disjunction (MAD) and
to discuss important challenges in diagnosis and management of MAD. Recent Findings …

Objectives The identification of patients with mitral valve prolapse (MVP) presenting high
arrhythmic risk remains challenging. Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance (CMR) feature …

Mitral annular disjunction (MAD) refers to atrial displacement of the hinge point of the mitral
valve annulus from the ventricular myocardium. MAD leads to paradoxical expansion of the …

Mitral valve prolapse (MVP) is the most frequent valvulopathy with a prevalence of 1.2%–
2.4% in general population and it is characterized by a benign course. Although it can be …

Individuals with mitral valve prolapse (MVP) have exercise intolerance even without mitral
valve regurgitation. Mitral valve degeneration may progress with aging. We aimed to …

Ventricular arrhythmia is one of the main causes of sudden cardiac death. Hence, identifying
patients at risk of ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death is important but can be …

Bileaflet Mitral Valve Prolapse (bMVP) has been linked to major arrhythmic events and
sudden cardiac death (SCD). Consistent predictors in this field are still lacking …

Idiopathic ventricular fibrillation is a rare cause of sudden cardiac arrest and a diagnosis by
exclusion. Unraveling the mechanism of ventricular fibrillation is important for targeted …

Mitral valve prolapse (MVP) is a common valvular heart defect with variable outcomes.
Several studies reported MVP as an underestimated cause of life-threatening arrhythmias …
