In view of the close relationship of mitral valve prolapse (MVP) and chest deformity, seven patients of MVP associated with flat chest were echocardiographically evaluated, and the results were compared with those of 43 normal control subjects, 29 cases with flat chest, and patients with MVP either of the anterior (25 cases) or posterior (21 cases) leaflet. MVP associated with flat chest was observed in the anterior leaflet in all cases. MVP was related to the dislocation of the two mitral leaflets caused by the displaced posterior mitral ring observed by two-dimensional echocardiography. The transition type was observed among the cases with or without dislocation of the mitral ring in cases with flat chest.
鉴于二尖瓣脱垂（MVP）与胸部畸形的密切关系，对7例合并扁平胸的MVP患者进行了超声心动图评估，并将结果与43例正常对照者、29例扁平胸患者以及单纯前叶（25例）或后叶（21例）MVP患者的结果进行了比较。所有合并扁平胸的MVP病例均观察到前叶受累。二维超声心动图观察发现，MVP与二尖瓣后环移位导致的二尖瓣两叶瓣叶脱位有关。在扁平胸患者中，观察到二尖瓣环有或无脱位的病例之间存在过渡类型。
