Mitral regurgitation (MR) associated with secundum Atrial Septal Defect (ASD) is not widely recognized but the association is not unusual. MR has been found in less than 10% of adults with large ASD which is mainly caused by mitral valve prolapse (MVP). We are reporting a case of congenital ostium secundum ASD with MVP associated with MR, review the clinical relevance of this association, and discuss the related literature. Our patient has shown dramatic improvement in symptoms and signs after ASD closure with mitral valve replacement along with improvement in tricuspid regurgitation. More general awareness of this association will further help the surgeon for better management of the patient with this rather unusual combination of lesions.University Heart Journal Vol. 12, No. 2, July 2016; 91-94

Mitral valve cleft associated with secundum atrial septal defect (ASD) is uncommon. We report a 39-year-old male patient manifesting symptoms of congestive heart failure 3 months before admission. Echocardiography showed typical mitral valve prolapse and a large ASD of the secundum type. He was diagnosed as severe mitral regurgitation and ASD. At operation, severe mitral valve prolapse with additional degenerative leaflets and a middle-sized cleft in the anterior leaflet were noted. A large ASD of a mixed central and inferior vena cava type was found. Mitral valve repair was impossible. The mitral valve was replaced with an ATS prosthesis. The ASD was repaired with a pericardial patch. Three slow arrhythmias, including nodal rhythm, sinus bradycardia and atrial fibrillation, complicated his early postoperative course. The literature of this entity was reviewed, and the etiology of the postoperative slow arrhythmias was discussed.
