text: The Mitral Valve Prolapse (MVP), also known as the click-murmur syndrome is a condition of the heart that causes the extra tissue on top of the mitral valve's flaps (leaflets) to bulge (prolapse) into the upper left heart chamber (left atrium), thus pushing the pumped blood back in (also known as Mitral Valve Regurgitation – MVR).
text: The valve has two flaps of tissue — known as leaflets — that open and close together like a pair of swinging doors.
text: Mitral valve prolapse occurs when the flaps (leaflets) of the heart's mitral valve bulge (prolapse) like a parachute into the heart's left upper chamber (left atrium) as the heart contracts.
text: In mitral valve regurgitation, the flaps (leaflets) of the mitral valve don't close tightly, causing blood to leak backward into the left atrium.
text: Mitral valve prolapse occurs when the flaps (leaflets) of the heart's mitral valve bulge (prolapse) like a parachute into the heart's left upper chamber (left atrium) as the heart contracts.

text: But in some people with mitral valve prolapse, one or both of the mitral valve’s flaps (leaflets) have extra tissue bulging (prolapsing) like a parachute into the left atrium each time the heart contracts.
