A high prevalence of left ventricular false tendons, mitral valve prolapse, with a changes in the geometry of the heart, with an increase in the longitudinal dimensions of the left atrium and left ventricle without changes in the volumes of the left heart, with an increase in the longitudinal dimensions and volume of the right atrium in comparison with those in practically healthy individuals were revealed.
