Mitral Valve Disease
نویسنده
چکیده
The mitral valve is the most complex of the heart’s 4 valves and is the one most commonly associated with disease. There are 3 main conditions that affect the valve: Obstruction (stenosis), leakage (regurgitation), and bulging backward during valve closure (prolapse). Prolapse is the most common, occurring in up to 5% of the population, whereas stenosis is the least common, accounting for less than 1% of cardiac diagnoses in the United States, although it is more frequently seen in developing nations.
