“…The typical cleft is a gap at the middle of anterior leaflet, but it has been long known that rarely posterior leaflet may be affected by such true cleft involving central tissue gap 9. Diagnosis of this typical pattern of congenital cleft mitral valve was recently enhanced by 3DTOC 10 11 22. However, use of the term ‘cleft’ in describing indentations between posterior leaflet scallops, normal or exaggerated,14 has been confusing.…”

“…True posterior leaflet clefts, cleaving it in two equal remnants, while long-known,9 are rare, but have recently been diagnosed in vivo with 3DTOC 10 11. Lately, another feature of MMVD was described: deep ‘clefts’ of posterior mitral leaflet,12 which do not really cleave the leaflet, but occupy the position of normal indentations between its three scallops.…”
