Abstract: Double orifice mitral valve (DOMV) is an uncommon anomaly characterized by a mitral valve with a single fibrous annulus with two orifices opening into the left ventricle.

Several devices are currently available. An eight year child underwent device closure of the ductus. However after deployment of the device it, became dislodged into the left pulmonary artery. Several attempts at catheter retrieval failed. The child underwent successful surgical removal of the device without cardiopulmonary bypass. 2011-01-01T00:00:00Z
