Two‐Dimensional Echocardiographic Findings of Pulmonary Valve Cyst Secondary to Pulmonary Valvuloplasty

Real time two‐dimensional transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiography demonstrated a mobile echolucent mass attached to the pulmonary valve in a 25‐year‐old adult, 20 years following balloon pulmonary valvuloplasty. The mass was surgically excised and pathology showed it to be a cyst.
