Patients with isolated MVP and VA were more likely to have bileaflet prolapse and at least moderate mitral regurgitation. VA originated more commonly from left-sided foci. While ablation was acutely successful in the majority of cases, there was still a moderate rate of VA recurrence. There is still more study needed on factors that will predict malignant VAs and management of these VAs in the MVP population.
