Abstract
Thirteen patients with proved prolapsed mitral leaflets were selected for right ventriculography to visualize their tricuspid valves. Twleve patients without prolapse were studied as controls. Six had late systolic prolapse of the tricuspid leaflets, most evident with the inferior leaflet. In one patient a clinical clue to the presence of tricuspid pathology was the appearance of a mid-late systolic murmur at the lower left sternal border after inspiration.This publication has 13 references indexed in Scilit:
