Overview

abstract

  • A man with endocarditis was found to have prosthetic tricuspid valve (TV) stenosis without regurgitation. The large vegetation moved into the TV prosthesis orifice in diastole. A seldom-recognized echocardiographic finding was observed in which the interatrial septum bulged toward the left atrium in diastole.
