A 16-year-old girl presented with an episode of syncope. Two-dimensional echocardiography revealed masses in the left atrium and left ventricle with severe mitral regurgitation. She underwent removal of myxomas and mitral valve replacement using an extended biatrial approach.

Apical lesions of the left ventricle, ranging from endocardial thickening to aneurysms, are commonly found in Chagas' heart disease. These abnormalities can be identified by ventriculography, two-dimensional echocardiography and radioisotopic studies. Generally, clinical manifestations are limited to arrhythmias and thromboembolic. The lesions are usually small and apparently do not play a role in ventricular dysfunction.
