A clinical case of primary diagnosis of the quadricuspid aortic valve in the practice of a functional diagnostic physician

https://doi.org/10.33667/2078-5631-2026-6-28-32

Abstract

The quadricuspid aortic valve (QAV) is a rare congenital heart anomaly that can remain asymptomatic for a long time. Modern non-invasive imaging methods significantly shift the timing of diagnosis and allow for the identification of such patients at earlier stages and their adequate monitoring.
