Risk factors of ventricular arrhythmias in non-syndromic mitral valve prolapse
E. L. Trisvetova
Abstract:Non-syndromic mitral valve prolapse (MVP) is a common disease. In most cases, its benign course is noted, however, a connection between MVP and ventricular arrhythmias is reported, as well as sudden cardiac death. Clinical signs (chest pain, syncope/lipotymia, mid-systolic click), results of instrumental studies (electrocardiographic, echocardiographic, magnetic resonance imaging) allow us to identify known ("old") risk factors and new phenomena encountered in rhythm and conduction disturbances during MVP.
