AbstractAs a complication of myocardial ischemia, severe elongation of the anterior papillary muscle with resultant mitral valve insufficiency is a rare clinical finding. Using echocardiography, we accurately diagnosed this condition in a 75-year-old man. The patient underwent successful plication of the elongated anterior papillary muscle and the implantation of polytetrafluoroethylene neochordae tendineae.
