Clinical and echocardiographic comparisons in the diagnosis of mitral prolapse
Over the past 5-10 years, there has been a significant increase in interest in mitral valve prolapse syndrome, which was largely facilitated by the emergence of new methods of heart research, in particular ultrasound. For the first time, the connection between the peculiar auscultative data of mitral prolapse and mitral valve damage was established in the early 60s. To date, numerous studies of patients with this syndrome have been conducted, but the correct diagnosis presents certain difficulties: both hypo- and overdiagnosis are observed. The first is due to the lack of familiarity of practitioners with this pathology, as well as the presence of aphonic forms, the second is due to the fact that cases with extracardial sound pattern are taken for prolapse. There was a high frequency of primary forms of prolapse inherited by autosomal dominant or recessive type, mainly in women.
