Article Synopsis
- An 84-year-old woman was admitted with heart failure, diagnosed with severe mitral valve insufficiency due to chordal rupture and prolapsed leaflets.
- An unusual left atrial chorda was found, which was affecting the mitral valve's function and worsening the insufficiency.
- She underwent surgery to remove the problematic chorda and received neochordae and a mitral ring annuloplasty, resulting in successful valve function post-operation.
