A narrowing of the mitral valve, usually caused by rheumatic fever, resulting in an obstruction to the flow of blood from the left atrium to the left ventricle
A valve of the heart, composed of two triangular flaps, that is located between the left atrium and left ventricle and regulates blood flow between these chambers. Also called bicuspid valve, left atrioventricular valve
There are four valves in the heart, two on the left side and two on the right side On each side there is an inflow valve to the ventricle - the main pumping chamber - and an outflow valve The mitral valve is the inflow valve for the left ventricle, and as such closes when the ventricle squeezes blood out to the body and then opens to let more blood into the ventricle
The valve that lies between the left atrium and left ventricle (main pumping chamber of the heart) This valve allows blood to flow from the left atrium into the left ventricle and then prevents the back flow of blood into the left atrium during ventricular contraction
The mitral valve is the valve that lies between the left atrium and left ventricle (main pumping chamber of the heart) This valve allows blood to flow from the left atrium into the left ventricle and then prevents the back flow of blood into the left atrium during ventricular contraction
A condition that occurs when the leaflets of the mitral valve between the left atrium (upper chamber) and left ventricle (lower chamber) bulge into the ventricle and permit backflow of blood into the atrium The condition is often associated with progressive mitral regurgitation
an abnormality of the valve between the left atrium and left ventricle of the heart that causes backward flow of blood from the left ventricle into the left atrium
A common slight deformity of the mitral valve, situated in the left side of the heart that can cause mitral insufficiency (leakage of the valve) Also known as "floppy valve syndrome " Mitral valve prolapse causes a characteristic heart murmur that may be heard by the physician through a stethoscope during a routine examination
