Dr. Amar Jyoti Borah, Dr. Satyajit Mitra
Abstract :
Mitral valve lies between the left atrial and left ventricular chambers guarding unidirectional flow to the left ventricle. Human mitral valves have two leaflets namely anterior and posterior which vary from individual to individual. Mitral valve diseases, have now assumed demands in surgery and need consideration of the anatomy in detail. Therefore, a study was conducted to analyze the attachment of the leaflets and to compare the differences in various studies. In the study average length of attachment of anterior leaflet was 3.05 ± 0.59 cm in males and 2.84± 0.26 cm in case of females and average length of attachment of posterior leaflet measures 4.82 ± 0.67 cm in male and 3.90 ± 0.65 cm in the female hearts. Throughout life, length of attachment of anterior and posterior leaflet of mitral valve is more in case of males than females.
