‘Speckled appearance of ball and cage valve’: An unusual 2D-ECHO artifact or a sign of pathological degeneration?
We report an interesting but rare 2D ECHO image of a ‘ball and cage’ prosthetic mitral valve resembling a ’starry sky’ pattern, possibly secondary to degeneration of the silicon rubber ball.
