Two Reports of Quadricuspid Aortic Valve With Aortic Insufficiency
We report two cases of a quadricuspid aortic valve with severe aortic incompetence. Both patients presented with dyspnea on exertion. Their physical examinations demonstrated wide pulse pressures with diastolic murmurs. Bedside transthoracic Doppler echocardiography revealed preserved left ventricular systolic function and possible quadricuspid aortic ...
