Cross-sectional echocardiographic visualization of abnormal systolic motion of the left ventricle in mitral valve prolapse

In 11 of 34 patients with typical mitral valve prolapse on the M‐mode echocardlogram, cross‐sectional echocardiography in the apical four‐chamber view revealed a characteristic abnormality not previously described. In mid‐ to late‐systole the ventricular septum contracted vigorously, forming a bend...
