Popis: | Graphical abstract Highlights • Accessory mitral tissue and left atrial chordae are rare congenital abnormalities. • Accessory mitral tissue can result in left ventricular outflow tract and mitral valve obstruction. • This is the first case of lateral mitral accessory tissue with an associate anomalous chord. • Transthoracic echocardiography may not be able to evaluate accessory mitral valve tissue. • Removal of anomalous chordae affecting the mitral valve may be complicated. |
