Abstract
We reported a case of a 45 year-old woman who had a quadricuspid aortic valve associated with moderate aortic regurgitation.
The valve abnormality was detected by transthoracic echocardiography. Transesophageal echocardiography showed
mild thickening of 4 symmetric aortic valve cusps, a small rectangular central regurgitant orifice, and moderate aortic insufficiency.
In addition visualised this anomaly in 3D transesophageal echocardiography too.
