Table 1: Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Findings in Patients with Mitral Annular Disjunction Stratified by the Presence of Ventricular Arrhythmias and Sudden Cardiac Death.

MAD Associated with VA MAD Associated with SCD
  • More pronounced (longer) MAD, with MAD >8.5 mm being a strong predictor of NSVT[49,73]

  • MAD at the inferolateral region is a distinctive imaging data point able to identify patients predisposed to idiopathic VF[95]

  • MAD has not been tested as an independent risk factor for SCD[111]

MAD = mitral annular disjunction; NSVT = non-sustained ventricular tachycardia; SCD = sudden cardiac death; VA = ventricular arrhythmias.
