ABSTRACT
Parachute mitral valve is a rare congenital cardiac anomaly in which the chordae tendineae of both leaflets of the mitral valve insert into a single papillary muscle. We diagnosed a 54-year-old adult with dyspnea after upper respiratory infection, who was proven to have the parachute mitral valve. To the best of our knowledge, this is the oldest patient reported with this congenital anomaly. The clinical, echocardiographic and MRI findings are described. We recommended surgery for anomalous lesion, but the patient refused. After medical treatment, the patient recovered uneventfully and remained asymptomatic during a follow-up of 13 months.
