Mitral valve prolapse due to mitral valve insufficiency

Mitral valve prolapse due to mitral insufficiency requires surgery.

If the mitral valve prolapse is mild and has no obvious symptoms, observation and medical treatment can be performed first. Surgery is usually not required if the mitral valve prolapse is severe and causes obvious symptoms, such as arrhythmia, or changes in cardiac structure such as left ventricular enlargement or left atrial enlargement. Surgical treatment includes mitral valve repair and mitral valve replacement, and the specific surgical method needs to be selected according to the specific situation of the patient and the doctor's suggestion.
