Overview

Pulmonic regurgitation (PR) must be differentiated from other diseases that cause blowing decrescendo murmur such as aortic regurgitation. The diseases which may present with overlapping symptoms as pulmonic regurgitation may include aortic regurgitation, tricuspid regurgitation, left to right shunting, right ventricular cardiomyopathy, pulmonary hypertension, infective endocarditis, carcinoid heart disease, syphilis and marfan syndrome.

Differential diagnosis of pulmonic regurgitation

Pulmonic regurgitation (PR) must be differentiated from other diseases that cause blowing decrescendo murmur such as aortic regurgitation. The diseases which may present with overlapping symptoms as pulmonic regurgitation may include the following:

Disease Findings
Aortic Regurgitation
  • Patients present with dyspnea and fatigability as a consequence of reduced cardiac reserve in the fourth or fifth decade[1]
  • AR murmur is heard over left sternal border or over the right second intercostal space and radiates to the neck
Tricuspid Regurgitation causing right vetricular enlargement
Left to Right Shunt causing RV enlargement
Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Cardiomyopathy

Other differential diagnosis
