  • Title: [Aneurysm of the anterior mitral leaflet - echocardiographic description].
    Author: Bakała WP.
    Journal: Kardiol Pol; 2010 Aug; 68(8):963-4. PubMed ID: 20730737.
    Abstract:
    Aneurysm of the anterior mitral leaflet is a rare complication of infective aortic valve endocarditis. The natural history of which is generally its rupture, with subsequent acute and severe mitral regurgitation. We describe a 78 years-old man without history of endocarditis, in whom transthoracic echocardiography was sufficient and transesophageal echocardiography was essential for the diagnosis of this lesion.
