Abstract(s)

According to the most recent recommendations of AHA, mitral valve prolapse (MVP) is defined as systolic displacement of the mitral leaflet into the left atrium (LA) of at least 2 mm from the mitral annular plane. The ESC recommendations define MVP, flail and billowing, according to the location of the leaflet tips in relation to the coaptation plan. Differences in outcomes considering these classifications are not established.
