Abstract
This is a case of a patient with Marfan Syndrome, who has as outstanding characteristics of a unicuspid mitral valve with moderate mitral regurgitation and atrial septal defect, both reported in an echocardiographic study. The association between both congenital cardiovascular alterations is very rare, and even more as unique findings in a patient with Marfan Syndrome.
