| Popis: | SUMMARY The present study was designed to investigate the incidence of benign joint hypermobility syndrome (BJHMS) in mitral valve prolapse (MVP) and correlation between echocardiographic features of mitral valve and elastic properties of aortic wall and Beighton hypermobility score (BHS) in patients with MVP and BJHMS. Forty-six patients with nonrheumatic, uncomplicated and isolated mitral anterior leaflet prolapse (7 men and 39 women, mean age :26.1± 5.9) and 25 healthy subjects (3 men and 22 women, mean age 25.4 ± 4.3) were studied. Patients were divided into two groups according to their BHS (Group I, BHS ³5; 5; Group II, BHS< 5). Individuals with accompanying cardiac or systemic disease were excluded. Echocaroliographic examination was done to all of the subjects. Presence of BJHMS was evaluated according to Beighton's criteria. The incidence of BJHMS in patients with MVP was found significantly higher than controls (45.6%, (21/46) vs. 12 % (3/25), p |
