Abstract: | Accessory mitral valve tissue is an uncommon congenital malformation and a rare cause of left ventricular outflow tract obstruction. Although echocardiography provides a "gold standard" for evaluation of valves, the high temporal and spatial resolutions of computed tomography technology makes it useful in the assessment of valvular structure and function. |
