Mitral insufficiency may result from abnormal degrees of upward extension of valvular tissue, a condition which may be termed "overshooting." This condition may result either from rupture of elements in the papillary muscle-chordal mechanism or from inadequate support of leaflets without rupture. The latter may occur in myocardial infarction or in instances of intrinsic weakness of connective tissues of leaflets and/or chordae tendineae
