“…Double mitral valve orifice may occasionally be of functional significance causing mitral stenosis or incompetence and usually associated with other cardiac anomalies [Demircin 2004, Domenico 1993, Honnekeri 1993, mainly endocardial cushion defect [Ancalmo 1977]. In 25% of the reported cases, partial atrioventricular septal defect is associated with this malformation, suggesting that the developmental defect involves endocardial cushion tissue [Yurdakul 1995]. However, in the second case, there was only a fossa ovalis type atrial septal defect as associated anomaly, which was closed in the first operation, and the other had no cardiac defect or malformation except DOMV.…”

“…DOMV or duplication of the mitral valve usually presents a congenital mitral stenosis or may show a normal valve function [Saylam 1976]. This malformation of the valve sometimes presents with no hemodynamic disturbances, but usually produces mitral valve stenosis and very rarely mitral insufficiency [Yurdakul 1995]. In half of the reported cases, the duplication of the mitral valve occurs as an isolated lesion [Rosenberg 1986].…”

Double orifice mitral valve (DOMV) is an uncommon congenital heart defect. The isolated occurrence of this anomaly is very rare and, more often, is associated with another congenital malformation, dominated by atrioventricular canal defects (AVCD). Mitral insufficiency and/or stenosis may complicate this malformation. Treatment may be summarized as abstention, surgical valve repair, or valve replacement. In here, we report three cases with DOMV. The first patient was an 18-month-old boy who was operated for severe mitral valve stenosis and mild insufficiency (in 1980s), the second was a 47-year-old female, who was operated recently for mitral valve replacement (MVR) under cardiopulmonary bypass due to severe mitral valve insufficiency. This patient had been operated due to the secundum-type atrial septal defect in our institution previously. The last one, a 3-year-old boy, with DOMV and three papillary muscles, was on clinical follow-up because he had no symptoms.

“…This anomaly is usually detected with other cardiac malformation [ 1 ]. Although double orifice mitral valve may allow normal blood flow between the left atrium and LV, it can substantially obstruct mitral valve inflow or produce mitral valve incompetence [ 2 ]. Following is a case of DOMV; we have experienced with atrioventricular (AV) canal defects.…”
