  • Title: Asymptomatic left ventricular outflow tract obstruction after mitral valve replacement with leaflet preservation.
    Author: Popovic Z, Vukajlovic D, Popovic AD.
    Journal: J Heart Valve Dis; 1999 Jul; 8(4):450-2. PubMed ID: 10461248.
    Abstract:
    It has been shown that inappropriate anterior mitral leaflet preservation during mitral valve replacement may cause left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction, usually with dismal prognosis. In this report, we describe a patient with chronic asymptomatic LVOT obstruction after mitral valve replacement with leaflet preservation.
