Varied Extent of Mitral Annular Disjunction Among Cases With Different Phenotypes of Mitral Valve Prolapse

Detailed 3-dimensional analysis of mitral annular disjunction was undertaken in 3 comparative cases of mitral valve prolapse. A case of Barlow disease showed extensive disjunction, whereas cases of fibroelastic deficiency and forme fruste demonstrated less extensive disjunction. Considering the curr...

Sumario:Detailed 3-dimensional analysis of mitral annular disjunction was undertaken in 3 comparative cases of mitral valve prolapse. A case of Barlow disease showed extensive disjunction, whereas cases of fibroelastic deficiency and forme fruste demonstrated less extensive disjunction. Considering the current controversies surrounding disjunction, these observations call for detailed research in the future. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.)
