ABSTRACT: Highlights•Accessory mitral tissue and left atrial chordae are rare congenital abnormalities.•Accessory mitral tissue can result in left ventricular outflow tract and mitral valve obstruction.•This is the first case of lateral mitral accessory tissue with an associate anomalous chord.•Transthoracic echocardiography may not be able to evaluate accessory mitral valve tissue.•Removal of anomalous chordae affecting the mitral valve may be complicated.
