Quadrivalvular rheumatic heart disease.

Three cases of chronic rheumatic heart disease with involvement of all four valves are presented. The involvement of tricuspid and pulmonary valves was suspected clinically and was confirmed by two-dimensional echo, Doppler, hemodynamic and angiographic findings. These findings were also verified surgically and histopathologically in 2 cases. One of the cases died after cardiac catheterization; the other 2 cases were treated surgically with success.
