A 25-year-old boy with a history of progressive breathlessness for 2 year referred to Heritage Hospital echocardiography lab on 16 th March 2012 for echocardiography examinations by local physician. Physical examination was unremarkable except for grade 4 pansystolic murmur in the left parasternal area and spo2 by pulse oxymeter was 95%. His 2D Echocardiography (ECHO) shows multiple muscular Ventricular Septal Defect (VSD) with bidirectional flow (predominant left to right shunt) and double orifice mitral valve (DOMV) [Figure 1], [Figure 2], [Figure 3]. Mitral valve is functionally normal without stenosis and regurgitation and there was no tricuspid regurgitation jet visible. He was advised for cardiac catheterization, but patient refused for the same. He was on frusemide 20 mg twice daily. We are reporting this case because of rare combination of muscular VSD with DOMV. | Figure 1: Parasternal short axis view showing double orifice mitral valve

DOMV is a rarely reported anomaly was first described by Greenfield in 1876. [1] This anomaly is characterized by a mitral valve with a single fibrous annulus with two orifices that open into the left ventricle. In most cases (85%), a larger orifice is accompanied by a small eccentric accessory orifice known as eccentric variety of DOMV, and second uncommon type of DOMV is concentric DOMV (15%) in which both mitral orifices are equal. Embryologically the lesion results from persistence of the left part of the common atrio-ventricular canal and abnormal leaflet fusion. In about 50% of DOMV cases, valvular function is normal, others present with stenosis or regurgitation. [2] Definitive management of most of the DOMV patients is surgical replacement of mitral valve.
