| Sumario: | The quadricuspid aortic valve is a rare congenital anomaly, usually presenting as an isolated malformation causing aortic regurgitation in the faith or sixth decades of life. The first reported cases were found at autopsy or became evident by surgical findings. However, the emergence of new imaging modalities currently allows an earlier diagnosis, including in asymptomatic patients. Hereby the case of a 60-year-old woman with quadricuspid aortic valve diagnosed by echocardiography is presented. A brief discussion of the disease is included. |
