Abstract
Congenital lesions which impede filling of the left ventricle include anomalies at mitral valvular level: valve stenosis and parachute mitral valve, or at supravalvular level: cor triatriatum and supravalvar mitral ring. Very rarely is obstruction caused by stenosis at pulmonary venous level.
