Sumario:The authors reported two patients with a history of asymptomatic mild mitral valve prolapse, a male in his late 40s (Case 1, vaccinated) and a female in her late 20s (Case 2, unvaccinated), who developed worsening (severe) mitral prolapse and New York Heart Association symptoms class III–IV after exposure to coronavirus disease 2019 with evidence of myocarditis on MRI. Both patients received similar 6-month of heart failure therapy; however, the outcomes did not affect the severity of their symptoms or mitral regurgitation. Subsequently, both patients underwent mitral valve surgery.
