Valvular heart diseases are typically classified according to the valve that is affected as well as the nature of the pathological defect as follows:

Valvular Disease	Most common cause(s)	Other causes	Murmur Description
			Low/High Frequency	Systolic/Diastolic Murmur	Best Heard Location	Other Features
Aortic stenosis
Aortic regurgitation
Mitral stenosis
Mitral regurgitation
Tricuspid stenosis	Rheumatic heart disease	Carcinoid heart disease Tumors	Low	Diastolic	Lower Left Sternal Border
Tricuspid regurgitation	Pulmonary HTN Left ventricular failure	Rheumatic heart disease Iatrogenic	Low	Pansystolic	Mid Sternal Border
Pulmonary stenosis
Pulmonary regurgitation
