title: Double-orifice tricuspid valve: a rare entity.
abstract: Duplication of the atrioventricular valves is a rare anomaly and is more commonly seen in the mitral position. We report the case of a 14-year old child with a large inlet muscular ventricular septal defect, who had a double-orifice tricuspid valve, which was detected incidentally during surgery.
