Abstract
Symptomatology of the patient depends on the presence of AMVT associated with LVOT obstruction, moderate affection of aortic and mitral valves and on concomitant cardiovascular malformations. Echocardiography plays a principal role in the diagnosis, follow-up and indication of surgery of patients with this congenital lesion. Clinically silent AMVT requires follow-up, but it is not an indication for surgery itself. On the other hand AMVT associated with LVOT obstruction or mitral stenosis is an indication for surgery, especially combined with other cardiac malformations.
