title: Systolic Murmur Due to Systolic Gradient Across Moderator Band.
abstract: A 14 years asymptomatic male was evaluated for a grade 3/6 systolic murmur along lower left parasternal region. Color Doppler evaluation revealed turbulent systolic flow across moderator band with a peak systolic gradient of 127.2 mm hg. There was no other abnormality. This anomaly should be considered in differential diagnosis of systolic murmur in tricuspid area.
