Figure 2. Transthoracic echocardiogram on admission of 52-year-old man. Parasternal right ventricular (RV) outflow view showing a complete regression of the pulmonary valve (A). Parasternal short-axis view shows free pulmonary regurgitation (PR). A color M-mode echocardiogram clearly shows free PR (B). Apical 4-chamber view shows prominent RV dilation as a result of free PR (C). RV – right ventricle; RVOT – right ventricular outflow tract; PA – pulmonary artery; RA – right atrium.
