Parachute deformity of both atrioventricular valves with congenitally corrected transposition in an adult

Abstract A 23-year-young female presented with mild exertional dyspnoea and palpitation since early childhood. By deploying 2D- and 3D echocardiography, she was detected to have situs solitus, atrioventricular and ventriculoarterial discordance with L-malposition of great vessels, valvular pulmonary stenosis, large secundum atrial septal defect, bicuspid aortic valve, right-sided aortic arch, and moderately severe mitral and tricuspid valve regurgitation. Typical parachute deformities of the morphologically mitral and tricuspid valves were observed. 3D echocardiography revealed a single papillary muscle in the morphologically left ventricle placed anteriorly and providing insertion to tendinous cords and only a moderator band with no other muscle bundles in the morphologically right ventricle placed posteriorly and providing attachment to two strings of cords. Considering the minimal symptoms, conservative treatment was pursued.
