چکیده انگلیسی
This study confirms prior observations that CCMA is a rare and benign condition. It illustrates the potential role of TEE in confirming the precise location of the lesion and in more clearly defining the extent of the involvement of the posterior mitral leaflet. There were no typical clinical characteristics in patients with CCMA although the absolute number of patients with CCMA was too small to be statistically significant. However, CCMA does tend to occur in older patients and all 14 patients with CCMA in this study had hypertension. CCMA may be a dynamic process based on the observation that 3 patients with MAC progressed to CCMA and 3 patients with CCMA reverted back to MAC during the study period. To avoid diagnostic mistakes such as tumor, abscess, or thrombus among echocardiographers, it is important for us to consider a more widespread knowledge of this rare lesion.
