If the mitral valve doesn't work properly, it can lead to conditions like mitral regurgitation or mitral stenosis. In mitral regurgitation, blood flows backward into the left atrium during contraction, potentially causing heart enlargement and pulmonary congestion. In mitral stenosis, the valve narrows, obstructing blood flow from the left atrium to the left ventricle, which can lead to symptoms like fatigue, shortness of breath, and increased pressure in the lungs. Both conditions can ultimately affect heart function and may require medical intervention.
