Abstract Introduction Accessory left atrial cords are fibroelastic structures found in the left atrium. Left atrial cords may be associated with mitral valve disease, atrial fibrillation, stroke, and other congenital left‐side anomalies. Methods We presented the case of a man with severe Mitral Regurgitation and two accessories left atrial cords attached to P2 scallop by a single tendon and performed a literature review using PUBMED/MEDLINE, Web of Science, and EMBASE databases on December 4, 2021. Results According to our review, accessory left atrial cords were found more frequently in women (36 patients, 62%), more frequently attached to the mitral valve (66% of reports) and mitral regurgitation was the most frequently reported pattern of mitral valve disease (64.2%). No other cases of double left atrial cords attached to P2 segment were found. Conclusion Accessory left atrial chords may be related to mitral valve disease and other left‐side congenital abnormalities. These structures were found more frequently in females and A2 insertion was the most frequently observed pattern in the review.
