Detailed explanation-1: -Acute mitral valve regurgitation is more likely to happen after a heart attack. It’s also more likely to happen after rupture of the tissue or muscle that supports the mitral valve. It can happen after an acute injury or heart valve infection.
Detailed explanation-2: -Mitral valve prolapse: Prolapse is the most common cause of mitral regurgitation, and features extra tissue in the valve that keeps it from closing. Certain inherited genes can increase your risk of developing prolapse. It is also called click-murmur syndrome, Barlow’s syndrome, and floppy valve syndrome.
Detailed explanation-3: -Overview. Mitral valve regurgitation is a type of heart valve disease in which the valve between the left heart chambers doesn’t close completely, allowing blood to leak backward across the valve. It is the most common type of heart valve disease (valvular heart disease).
