However, there may be atresia of the valve, with or without stenosis of the right venous ostium; only one or two leaflets, or as many as four, five or six leaflets; excessive development of the valve with atresia of one leaflet; an extra leaflet fused with one of the normal leaflets; congenital neoplastic hyperplasia of the valve; displacement of the valve downward into the right ventricle; or even transposition of the tricuspid and mitral valves. Herxheimer1(1909-1913) reviewed briefly the reported cases of such anomalies, which,...Bibliography1. HERXHEIMER G in SCHWALBE, E.: Die Morphologie der Missbildungen des Menschen und der Tiere. III.
