This chapter deals with the valves in transoesophageal echocardiography. It covers the mitral valve (stenosis, regurgitation, and prolapse), the aortic valve (stenosis and low-flow stenosis and regurgitation), the tricuspid valve, the pulmonary valve (stenosis, regurgitation, and prolapse), infective endocarditis (diagnosis, echocardiographic features, and differential diagnoses).

The incidence of heart valve hemangioma is very low and is mostly observed in the mitral and tricuspid valve. In 2006, two cases of aortic valve hemangioma were reported for the first time, including one with calcifying aortic valve stenosis. We now present a case of aortic valve hemangioma in a patient suffering from aortic valve insufficiency combined with atherosclerotic thickening.


Cardiac CT is not the first nor the most frequently applied imaging technique in patients with suspected or established valvular heart disease. It has a complementary role in the management of valvular heart disease in specific situations. This chapter covers the role of cardiac CT, including scan protocols, limitations, and challenges, the mitral and aortic valve, stenosis, regurgitation, the tricuspid valve, pulmonary valve, and prosthetic valves.
