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 کاملLung hypoplasia in congenital pulmonary valve stenosis.
The pulmonary function of ten adult patients with congenital pulmonary valvular stenosis was investigated. The patients clearly showed smaller lungs than healthy control subjects of equivalent age and height; lung elastic recoil pressure was normal at any given percentage of measured total lung capacity, indicating that postnatal parenchymal damage is not the cause of the small lungs. The lung ...
متن کاملType F Congenital Quadricuspid Aortic Valve: A Very Rare Case Diagnosed by 3-dimenional Transoesophageal Echocardiography
Congenital quadricuspid aortic valve (QAV) is a rare cardiac anomaly. Several different anatomical variations of a quadricuspid aortic valve have been described. Aortic regurgitation is the predominant valvular dysfunction associated with QAV and patients tend to present in their 5(th) or 6(th) decade of life. This anomaly is rarely picked up by transthoracic echocardiogram (TTE). A comprehensi...
متن کاملEndocarditis complicating a congenital quadricuspid aortic valve.
The most common aortic valve congenital abnormality is observed in bicuspid aortic valve. Only a few cases of aortic valve quadricuspidy have been reported in the literature. We report a new case of endocarditis complicating a congenital quadricuspid aortic valve.
