Echocardiographic evaluation of left ventricular systolic function by the M-mode lateral mitral annular plane systolic excursion in patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy age 0-21 years.

Lateral M-mode MAPSE measurements are reproducible in young patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy. M-mode lateral MAPSE may worsen over length of time with Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Further studies are necessary to provide absolute conclusions, but this study shows that lateral M-mode MAPSE may be a valuable additional tool at routine echocardiogram in these patients.
