    Author: Knackstedt C, Mischke K, Schimpf T, Neef P, Schauerte P.
    Journal: Int J Cardiol; 2007 Apr 04; 116(3):e101-2. PubMed ID: 17137658.
    Abstract:
    Mitral valve prolapse usually has a good prognosis. However, an association between mitral valve prolapse and atrial and ventricular arrhythmias has been described. This case presents a patient who was admitted after cardiac resuscitation due to ventricular fibrillation. A severe mitral valve prolapse was the only pathology found.
