    Journal: Echocardiography; 2000 Nov; 17(8):731-2. PubMed ID: 11153020.

    We describe an unusual case of gross dehiscence of a Carpentier mitral ring, not due to bacterial endocarditis, causing severe mitral valve insufficiency and cardiac failure. Diagnosis was made by transesophageal echocardiography (TEE). Mitral valve replacement was then performed.
