The effect of acute changes in coronary blood flow on left ventricular end-diastolic wall thickness. An echocardiographic study.

abstract：:Premature opening of the pulmonary valve (opening independent of atrial or ventricular systole) was originally described in a case of sinus of Valsalva rupture into the right atrium. Since that time we have observed five additional cases in which the pulmonary valve opened prematurely. Entities encountered included: 1...
