Study design: Case Report
Abstract: Myxomatous valvular disease of cardiac valves has been reported in various studies and case reports which involves mainly mitral valve. This valvular involvement produces several degrees of regurgitant lesions, causing symptoms. Concomitant involvement of mitral, aortic, and tricuspid valves has been rarely reported. Here, we report a case of a 49-year-old male with triple valve prolapse, presenting with dyspnea and palpitations. The patient was managed conservatively as he was not fit for surgical intervention. This report adds to the limited data available in the literature and current guidelines to support clinical decision-making.
