AB Measurement of the areas of the cusps and leaflets of the left
atrioventricular valve (LAV) and a study of their shape were performed
in 91 normal human hearts, to assess the range of variation and
determine the most frequent morphologic pattern. The average areas were
as follows: LAV, 904.9 mm2; anterior cusp, 447 mm2; posterior cusp, 457
mm2; anterolateral leaflet, 118.6 mm2; intermediate leaflet, 212.7 mm2;
and posteromedial leaflet, 126 mm2. The commonest shape of the leaflets
of the posterior cusp, proved to be rectangular.
