    Mitral regurgitation, also known as mitral insufficiency or mitral incompetence, is the backward flow of blood from the left ventricle, through the mitral valve, and into the left atrium, when the left ventricle contracts, resulting in a systolic murmur radiating to the left armpit.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitral_stenosis

    By far the most serious adverse event is the occurrence of acute severe mitral regurgitation. Severe mitral regurgitation usually results from a tear in one of the valve leaflets or the subvalvular apparatus. It can lead to pulmonary edema and hemodynamic compromise, necessitating urgent surgical mitral valve replacement. [citation needed]

    In the United States, MVP is the most common cause of severe, non-ischemic mitral regurgitation. [4] This is occasionally due to rupture of the chordae tendineae that support the mitral valve. [11] The severity of regurgitation in MVP is typically estimated using a grading system: [16] [17] [18] 0 (none or trivial) Grade 1 (mild) Grade 2 (moderate)

    Associated with aortic valve regurgitation (or mitral regurgitation before rupture of chordae). It is a diastolic murmur heard over the mid-precordium. [16] Continuous and Combined Systolic/Diastolic. Patent ductus arteriosus may present as a continuous murmur radiating to the back. Severe coarctation of the aorta can present with a continuous ...

    During diastole, the mitral valve opens and lets blood fill into the ventricle. If the mitral valve doesn’t open enough, it gets harder to fill the left ventricle, called mitral valve stenosis. Let’s start with mitral valve regurgitation - the leading cause of mitral valve regurgitation in the United States and the most common of all ...

  8. Regurgitation (circulation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regurgitation_(circulation)

    Mitral regurgitation: the backflow of blood from the left ventricle into the left atrium, owing to insufficiency of the mitral valve; it may be acute or chronic, and is usually due to mitral valve prolapse, rheumatic heart disease, or a complication of cardiac dilatation. See also Mitral regurgitation.

    Mitral disease can be classified using Carpentier's classification which is based on the leaflet motion. Type I pertains to normal leaflet motion. Whereas, disease of the valve is categorized to primary mitral regurgitation or secondary mitral regurgitation based on the regurgitant etiology.
