RESUMO

Thirty-three consecutive patients with mitral valve prolapse with a systolic murmur were evaluated using pulsed doppler echocardiography to quantify the severity of mitral regurgitation. There were thirteen (39%) patients with mild regurgitation, twelve patients (36%) with moderate regurgitation and eight patients (24%) with severe regurgitation. It was noticed that, all the patients with severe regurgitation had posterior leaflet prolapse. In contrast, patients with anterior leaflet prolapse had either mild or moderate regurgitation only. Our results suggest that the degree of mitral regurgitation differs depending on the leaflet that shows the prolapse, which may be of importance in the followup of patients with mitral valve prolapse.
