Özet

The quadricuspid aortic valve (QAV) is a very uncommon congenital malformation with an estimated incidence of 0.003% to 0.043% of all congenital heart diseases. Combinations of QAV with several different congenital malformations have been described. The case is reported of a type A QAV associated with moderate aortic regurgitation, mild mitral regurgitation, and ascending aorta dilatation. This interesting case was referred for close follow up.
