[Prolapse of the mitral valve in coronary heart disease (author's transl)].
Two hundred angio-cardiograms of patients with confirmed myodardial infarcts or angina pectoris were analysed. Patients with rheumatic heart disease were not included. In each patient the left ventricule and coronary vessels had been demonstrated and pressure measurements taken. In 8.5% there was prolapse of a mitral valve leaflet. In two thirds of these produced mitral insufficiency.
