A Supernumerary Valvula in the Pulmonary Semilunar Valve

Abstract

A supernumerary valvula of the pulmonary semilunar valve was found in a 51-year old, male Japanese. The valve was composed of three equal-sized valvulae and one smaller one with numerous fenestrations present. The supernumerary valvula was located between the anterior and right valvulae. We found this condition in one of 1407 cadavers examined
