New-onset ventricular arrhythmias in a 23-year-old female patient early after surgical valve repair for mitral valve prolapse with severe mitral regurgitation A. 24 h Holter monitoring showing a high burden of new-onset ventricular ectopy and non-sustained ventricular tachycardias. B. 12-lead ECG with a couplet of premature ventricular extrasystoles showing a right bundle branch block pattern with a late R/S transition in V4 precordial lead, likely originating from the anterolateral papillary muscle.
