Fig. 2

A Apical four-chamber three-dimensional transthoracic echocardiographic view with the appearance of multiple left ventricular false tendons (arrows). B Modified Four-chamber long-axis view depicting two left ventricular false tendons (arrow) from anterolateral mitral papillary muscle to basal segment of the anterior septal wall. Left ventricular false tendons are restricting the movement of the papillary muscle by pulling toward to interventricular septal wall. Fortunately, mitral valve dysfunction did not emerge secondary to these lesions. C, D Modified apical two-chamber view revealed complex branching left ventricular false tendons (arrow) between the base of anterolateral and posteromedial mitral papillary muscles and chordae tendinea
