[Criteria of selection of mitral valve prolapse truly pathological].
Considering the high frequency of mitral valve prolapse in the general population and the frequent errors concerning its diagnosis, we have attempted to select a few criteria in order to differentiate the forms which are really pathological. This selection, in light of the data from the literature, is based on the clinical context and ultrasound results.
