pubmed:abstractText |
We present a patient with rupture of both atrioventricular valves in a previously healthy adult man who sustained a 5-foot fall. The mechanism of injury was such that it would not necessarily raise an adequate index of suspicion for valvular damage had valvular rupture not occurred. The usefulness of perioperative echocardiography is highlighted.
