Characterization of Degenerative Mitral Valve Disease: Differences between Fibroelastic Deficiency and Barlow’s Disease
Degenerative mitral valve disease causing mitral valve prolapse is the most common cause of primary mitral regurgitation, with two distinct phenotypes generally recognized with some major differences, i.e., fibroelastic deficiency (FED) and Barlow’s disease. The aim of this review was to describe th...
