Associated double-orifice mitral and tricuspid valves without ostium primum defect.
The simultaneous existence of double orifice right and left atrioventricular valves in the absence of ostium primum defects is rare and scarcely reported. We present the case of a 20-month old boy diagnosed with tetralogy of Fallot with pulmonary atresia who was found to have associated double-orifice mitral and tricuspid valves.
