    Author: Inoue D, Furukawa K, Matsukubo H, Watanabe T, Katsume H.
    Journal: Chest; 1979 Dec; 76(6):693-4. PubMed ID: 510009.
    Abstract:
    A patient with click and late systolic murmur syndrome originating in the right side of the heart is described. Prolapse of the anterior tricuspid leaflet was demonstrated by subxiphoid two-dimensional echocardiography alone. Neither of the mitral leaflets showed any evidence of prolapse on the echocardiogram. The prolapsed anterior tricuspid leaflet and mild regurgitation were confirmed by right heart cineangiogram.
