About Video

This video clip three-dimensional transthoracic echocardiography shows arrowhead points to subvalvular apparatus (chordae and papillary muscle) remaining in the left ventricle following resection of the native mitral valve and replacement with a prosthetic valve. This could be misdiagnosed as tumor or vegetations (LA: left atrium; LV: left ventricle).
