title: Isolated tricuspid valve prolapse diagnosed by echocardiography.
abstract: Isolated tricuspid valve prolapse in the absence of mitral valve prolapse or other cardiac defects has not been previously noted. This report describes a patient who on both M-mode and two-dimensional echocardiography demonstrated tricuspid prolapse without other associated abnormalities. The implications of this finding are discussed.
