    Double Orifice Mitral Valve and Bicuspid Aortic Valve: Pieces of the Same Single Puzzle
    (Hindawi Ltd, 2015) Saylik, Faysal; Mutluer, Ferit Onur; Tosu, Aydin; Selcuk, Murat
    Double orifice mitral valve is a very rare congenital abnormality. Well known associations of this pathology with other congenital lesions point to a complex and central pathophysiological mechanism leading to a sequence of pathologies. These associations have long been realized and arbitrarily defined as Shone complex. We would like to present a 21-year-old patient with double orifice mitral valve associated with bicuspid aortic valve, with a brief review of the literature on possible central mechanisms leading to different subsets of congenital abnormalities involving these two.
