Quadricuspid pulmonary valve.
Quadricuspid pulmonary valve is a rare finding which is usually discovered post mortem (Hudson, 1965). Its incidence is variously reported from 1 case in 20,000 necropsies (Simonds, 1923) to 5 cases in 5000 necropsies (Dagnini, 1930). Most other reports suggest, however, that the latter figure is the more accurate (Simpson, 1898; Thilo, 1909; de Vries, 1918; Houck, 1929). In reviewing the subje...
متن کاملQuadricuspid pulmonary valve identified by transthoracic echocardiography.
The quadricuspid pulmonary valve is a rare congenital anomaly. It tends to be clinically quiescent. Its diagnosis by two-dimensional echocardiography could be very difficult because of the anatomical features. We report on the echocardiographic findings of a 66-year-old female patient with mitral and aortic regurgitation of rheumatic origin and severe pulmonary hypertension. There was an aneuri...
متن کاملQuadricuspid pulmonary valve in an adult patient identified by transthoracic echocardiography and multi-detector computed tomography.
Quadricuspid pulmonary valve is a rare congenital heart disease. It is infrequently associated with significant clinical complications and tends to be clinically silent. Because of its benign nature, it has been diagnosed mainly post mortem. Its diagnosis by transthoracic echocardiography is very difficult because of the anatomical features. We describe a case of quadricuspid pulmonary valve di...
متن کاملQuadricuspid pulmonary valve and left pulmonary artery aneurysm in an asymptomatic patient assessed by cardiovascular MRI
We present a coincidental finding of quadricuspid pulmonary valve and left pulmonary artery aneurysm. As both the pulmonary valve and the pulmonary trunk with its main branches are hard to visualise with cardiac ultrasound, most abnormalities described so far are from autopsy series. With the increasing use of CMR and its excellent potential for visualising both pulmonary valve and pulmonary ar...
