RESUMEN
This report describes a case of accessory mitral valve in an elderly patient on maintenance hemodialysis. Transesophageal echocardiography revealed a mobile sac-like structure with size of 12 × 10 mm(2), which attached to the left ventricular surface of base of the anterior mitral valve leaflet. Mobile stick-like structure with diameter of 21 mm was extending from this sac-like structure toward the left ventricular outflow tract and had a floating free edge. Peak pressure gradient across the left ventricular outflow tract was 32 mmHg. There were no other congenital cardiac anomalies. No clinical findings suggestive of bacterial or nonbacterial vegetation were seen. Also other possibilities of mobile thrombus or calcification were unlikely. These abnormal structures were diagnosed as accessory mitral valve with rudimentary chordae.
