In light of the adverse prognosis related to severe mitral regurgitation, heart failure, or
sudden cardiac death in a subset of patients with mitral valve prolapse (MVP), identifying …

Risk stratification scheme. Risk stratification aiming at assessing the risk of VAs and SCD in
patients with MVP, involving two phases based on the clinical and imaging context and the …

Background The relationship between mitral valve prolapse (MVP) and sudden cardiac
death (SCD) remains controversial. In this systematic review, we evaluate the relationship …

Mitral valve prolapse (MVP) is the most frequent valve condition but remains a conundrum in
