A case of discrete subvalvular aortic stenosis with anomalous insertion of a papillary muscle to the base of the anterior mitral valve leaflet and continuous with the discrete subaortic stenosis is described. Two-dimensional echocardiographic and pathologic data showing the contribution of the anomalous papillary muscle to left ventricular outflow tract obstruction are presented.
