The authors report the case of a child followed up from the age of 4 months to the age of 15 for asymptomatic congenital heart disease. Initial clinical examination showed the presence of a systolic murmur and a diastolic rumble in the xiphoid area with signs of right atrial dilatation-hypertrophy. During follow-up, an apical diastolic rumble was detected with left atrial dilatation from the age of 3. Doppler echocardiography carried out recently showed double mitral and tricuspid valve stenosis with two-dimensional appearances of doming of both valves and moderate transvalvular pressure gradients with slight elevation of pulmonary artery pressures on the Doppler study. The very early detection of the malformation and the continuous follow-up of this patient indicate the congenital and not rheumatic origin of this double valve stenosis.
