The prevalence and impact of deep clefts in the mitral leaflets in mitral valve prolapse
.
Clefts were documented in 84% of patients with MVP, but significantly less frequently in patients with alternative MR (16%; P < 0.001) and controls (12%, P < 0.001).
.
Conclusion Clefts are frequently seen in MVP, but are uncommon in patients without this diagnosis. They occur in greater numbers as a larger proportion of the valve prolapses. They may play an important role in the development of MVP.
.
Apesar de ser descrito raramente nos laudos de rotina, o cleft está presente em muito pacientes com PVM.
