Popis: A 49-year-old female with complaints of dyspnea on exertion and palpitations was admitted to our hospital for further care. Clinically, the patient was found to have severe mitral stenosis with severe pulmonary arterial hypertension. Cardiac color Doppler was suggestive of severe rheumatic mitral stenosis not amenable to balloon mitral valvuloplasty with severe pulmonary arterial hypertension and incidentally detected nonrestrictive cor triatriatum sinister. Patient was advised open mitral valvotomy/mitral valve replacement with repair of cor triatriatum
