RESUMO
We present the case of a healthy young woman that was evaluated before participation in amateur sports. A systolic and diastolic murmur was heard during the physical examination. Two-dimensional echocardiography was performed, and a direct insertion of the posteromedial papillary muscle into the mitral valve leaflets was found. Mild mitral stenosis and moderate regurgitation were also found. Because she was asymptomatic, a follow-up in 6 months was planned to control the evaluation of her valve disease.
