Abstract
Nearly two thirds of this parachute mitral valve cohort underwent biventricular palliation. Some progression of mitral stenosis occurred, although mitral valve intervention was rare. “True” parachute mitral valve was associated with mitral stenosis on initial echocardiogram. “True” parachute mitral valve and conotruncal anomalies were associated with mortality in the biventricular population.
