(a) In parasternal long-axis view, wall motion was normokinetic and ejection fraction was over 60%. Posterior leaflet of mitral valve (P1) had a valvular aneurysm and perforation of the valvular aneurysm. Severe mitral regurgitation is shown in color Doppler echo imaging. (b) Transesophageal echocardiography showed that posterior leaflet of mitral valve (P1) had a valvular aneurysm, with perforation of the valvular aneurysm and severe mitral regurgitation, but did not have vegetation or abscess of the mitral valve annulus.
