Anatomy of the Mitral Valve
ثبت نشده
چکیده
In 1966 Barlow and Bosman(1) described a constellation of clinical fi ndings consisting of non-ejection systolic clicks and a late systolic murmur, T-wave abnormalities, and systolic aneurysmal billowing of the posterior mitral leafl et into the left atrium. Since then, in areas without rheumatic heart disease, mitral valve prolapse (MVP) has been portrayed as the most common form of valvular heart disease.(2) It is characterized by pathological anatomic and physiologic changes in the mitral valve apparatus affecting mitral leafl et motion and function.
