Complications and prognosis
The overall prognosis is excellent for most patients with MVP, with an expected lifespan similar to the general population.
A minority of patients may develop complications, which are:
-Progression to severe mitral regurgitation, which may may require surgery.
-There is a small increased risk of:
Sudden cardiac death
Infective endocarditis
-Possibly, an increased risk of stroke, but this has not been proved.
Results of mitral valve repair are usually good.
