Author ProfileAbstract
A 59-year-old male was incidentally diagnosed with a left atrial mitral
valve chordae involving the junction of the A1 and A2 mitral valve
leaflets and resulting in moderate mitral regurgitation. The recognition
of this extremely rare congenital malformation prevented over diagnosis
and overtreatment.23 Jun 2023Submitted to Echocardiography 24 Jun 2023Submission Checks Completed
