  • Title: Echocardiography in Lutembacher's syndrome.
    Author: Quash JA, Davia JE, de Castro CM, Bowen TE, Green DC.
    Journal: Chest; 1977 Nov; 72(5):676-8. PubMed ID: 913159.
    Abstract:
    The findings in a patient with surgically proven Lutembacher's syndrome (coexisting mitral stenosis and atrial septal defect) are presented. In addition to a typical pattern of mitral stenosis, the preoperative echocardiogram revealed paradoxical septal motion, thereby providing, prior to cardiac catheterization, a basis for the suspicion of an associated lesion due to diastolic overload of the right ventricle.
