[Anomalous chordae tendineae of the left ventricle. Echocardiographic study]. 1984

G Neri, and E Moro, and R Zamprogno, and R Sandri

Left ventricular false tendons (or anomalous bands) have been described in several anatomic studies. Recently the echocardiographic features of such false tendons have been reported also. We have found a prevalence of 36 cases in 1,600 consecutive patients examined (2.2%). False tendons represent a rather common and benign phenomenon. Echocardiography is the most useful tool in the detection of false tendons.
