Abstract:
A 38-year-old male with a history of myxomatous mitral valve disease post-repair presented with recurrent dyspnea during exertion. Initial evaluation showed mild systolic anterior motion and mitral regurgitation, but medical management was unsuccessful. The patient underwent reoperation; intraoperative transesophageal echocardiogram with provocation unmasked severe systolic anterior motion and torrential mitral regurgitation.
