“…The most frequent predictor of cardiovascular mortality is moderate to severe MR and, less frequently, an LV ejection fraction less than 0.50 (294). Echocardiographic evidence of thickened MV leaflets (5 mm or greater) is also a predictor of complications related to MVP (295)(296)(297)(298)(299). In most patients, MVP is associated with a benign prognosis (300,301), with an age-adjusted survival rate for both men and women similar to that of individuals without this entity (302).…”

“…The committee recommends that patients without MR who have leaflet thickening, elongated chordae, left atrial enlargement, or LV dilatation receive endocarditis prophylaxis (295)(296)(297)(298)(299)314) (see Section II-C-1). Patients with MVP and palpitations associated with mild tachyarrhythmias or increased adrenergic symptoms and those with chest pain, anxiety, or fatigue often respond to therapy with beta blockers (315).…”

“…Thicker mitral leaflets in patients with mitral valve prolapse evaluated by means of transthoracic echo [21][22][23][24][25][26][27] or transesophageal echo [28][29][30] have already been reported in the previous studies. This is the first report that the mitral valve morphology was related to the severity of mitral regurgitation complicated with mitral valve prolapse using echocardiography.…”

“…O Holter de 24 h foi mais sensível que o ECG convencional na detecção dos distúrbios elétricos supraventriculares. A ocorrência de arritmias supraventriculares complexas em 100% dos pacientes em RS na população estudada foi maior que a da população sem valvopatia mitral 17,18 denotando que a valvopatia mitral os tornam susceptíveis às arritmias atriais, como já se observou [19][20][21][22] . Os pacientes em ritmo sinusal não apresentavam quadro clínico de disfunção ou doença do nó sinusal.…”

“…A sobrecarga hemodinâmica atrial esquerda, manifestada pelo diâmetro atrial esquerdo médio de 57,8mm, pode justificar a alta incidência de arritmias supraventriculares no pré-operatório 22,24 . O tempo de pinçamento aórtico e outras variáveis cirúrgicas podem ser o gatilho para o desenvolvimento de arritmias atriais pós-operatórias 8,21,25,26 .…”
