“…Mitral valve regurgitation is the most common valvular lesion in patients with RHD, particularly in the early stages, while pure mitral regurgitation is the most common RHD presentation [73][74][75] . Rheumatic mitral regurgitation primarily results from morphological changes that reflect chronic scarring of the mitral valve and mitral valve apparatus.…”

“…Usually, the base and mid-sections of the leaflets move toward the ventricular apex, while the motion of the leaflet tips is restricted owing to fusion of the anterior and posterior leaflets along the medial and lateral commissures 27 . In rheumatic mitral stenosis, two-dimensional echocardiography allows for detailed evaluation of mitral valve morphology, including assessment of leaflet thickness, leaflet mobility, degree of calcification, and extent of subvalvular involvement (Figure 2) 75 .…”
