 Subject: help with diagnosis of mitral valve abnormality
 
 
 The patient has cardiac disease and mitral valve disease and comes to pulmonology for pulmonary nodules.  Doctor says: "I am not sure exactly what the specific anatomical diagnosis was but it was some type of s/l *mixomidis* type abnormality of the mitral valve." 
 Thanks!

 excessive retrograde movement of one or both mitral valve leaflets into the left atrium during left ventricular systole, often allowing mitral regurgitation; responsible for the click-murmur of Barlow syndrome, and rarely may be due to rheumatic carditis, a connective tissue disorder such as Marfan syndrome, or ruptured chorda tendinea ("flail mitral leaflet").
