Mitral Regurgitation in Unpublished Mitral Lesions in Cutis Laxa: Case Report and Review of the Literature

Congenital mitral regurgitation (BMI), a rare disease, is defined as any left ventriculo auricular regurgitation due to dysplasia of the congenital mitral valve. It is accompanied by some degree of relative stenosis, and frequently associated with other malformations. Curtis Laxa is a skin disease, either acquired or hereditary, with autosomal and sexual transmission. Redundant skin is often most visible on the neck, hands and groin, but can also be seen on the face, creating an appearance of premature aging. It is associated with severe systemic involvement in some forms. We report a case of severe mitral regurgitation associated with valvular damage in a patient being treated for hereditary Cutis Laxa with other associated systemic damage.
