Abstract
A 23-year-old non-dysmorphic female was admitted for congestive heart failure. She was diagnosed with mitral stenosis, congenital hypopituitarism confirmed by genetic tests (defect of gene encoding growth hormone secretion [GH1]; defect of gene encoding pituitary cell differentiation [PROP1]) and coeliac disease. Echocardiography and cardiac computed tomography (CT) showed a congenital mitral arcade causing severe stenosis [1–5]. Mitral arcade has some anatomical features in common with the parachute valve, such as deformed and restricted leaflet mobility and underdeveloped commissures.
