Abstract
A 17-year-old girl with Turner's syndrome underwent two cardiac operations due to severe mitral stenosis with pulmonary hypertension, caused by a parachute-like mitral valve. The anomaly was associated with persistence of the left superior caval vein, which drained to the coronary sinus, and non-compaction of the left ventricular myocardium. The association of these lesions is rare in patients with Turner's syndrome.Entities:
