*mitral valve commissural fusion,
*double orifice mitral valve,
*thickened [[chordae tendinae]], and
*[[Shone's syndrome]] which consists a set of four cardiac defects:
:::*parachute mitral valve,
:::*supra-valve mitral membrane (SVMM),
:::*sub-[[aortic stenosis]],
:::*[[coarctation of the aorta]],
'''Acquired Mitral Stenosis:'''
*[[Rheumatic heart disease]]: MS is synonymous with [[rheumatic fever]] which occurs as a complication of '''group A streptococcal''' infection in genetically susceptible individuals.
