  • Title: [Arrhythmias in the mitral valve prolapse syndrome].
    Author: Triulzi MO, Montani E, Melloni R, Balice G, Mezzadri M, Maggi GC.
    Journal: Minerva Med; 1982 Apr 02; 73(14):835-6. PubMed ID: 7070693.
    Abstract:
    Possible connections have been investigated between PVc (premature ventricular contractions) and echocardiographic patterns in 23 patients affected by MVPS. Pansystolic prolapse has been found in 12 cases and mid-systolic prolapse in 11. A correlation has been found between significant ventricular arrhythmias (50 PVc/24 h) and mid-systolic prolapse. These findings suggest the mechanical origin of cardiac rhythm disorders.
