ABSTRACT
We experienced an unusual case of partial atrioventricular septal defect in an elderly patient. A preoperative ultrasonic cardiogram revealed the mitral leaflet pouching toward the right atrium and suggested the presence of a ventricular septal defect underneath the atrioventricular valve. The mitral aneurysm was diagnosed as a septal aneurysm on preoperative ultrasonic cardiogram. A crescent-shaped Dacron patch (InterVascular S. A., La Ciotat Cedex, France) was placed beneath the atrioventricular valve to prevent rupture of the mitral aneurysm and support the anterior mitral leaflet by creating a new annulus. We believe that this is the first report describing this type of mitral aneurysm and its surgical repair.
