A rare case of spontaneously dissolved calcification of the mitral annulus: Caseous calcification of the mitral annulus.

Caseous calcification of the mitral annulus is a rare variant of mitral annular calcification (MAC). MAC is detected using conventional echocardiography and is prevalent in the elderly. However, limited information is currently available on the transformation of MAC. We herein report a case of a sudden liquified change in MAC, which was diagnosed using echocardiography and computed tomography.
