  • Title: Mitral valve prolapse and panic disorder.
    Author: Raj A, Sheehan DV.
    Journal: Bull Menninger Clin; 1990; 54(2):199-208. PubMed ID: 2194607.
    Abstract:
    The literature and clinical experience suggest a higher-than-normal incidence of mitral valve prolapse in patients with panic disorder, although the relationship between these two conditions is currently a matter of speculation. Patients with panic disorder are likely to first consult their family practitioner or internist, who may then refer them to a psychiatrist. Hence psychiatrists should be familiar with the signs, symptoms, and management of mitral valve prolapse. The authors describe mitral valve prolapse, panic disorder, and their association, then suggest a strategy for evaluation and treatment of these conditions.
