Diastolic Murmurs
- Early Diastolic Murmurs
- AR
- Valvular: congenital (bicuspid valve), rheumatic deformity, endocarditis, prolapse, trauma, post-valvotomy
- Dilation of valve ring: aorta dissection, annuloaortic ectasia, medial degeneration, hypertension, ankylosing spondylitis
- Widening of commissures: syphilis
- Pulmonic regurgitation
- Valvular: post-valvotomy, endocarditis, rheumatic fever, carcinoid
- Dilation of valve ring: pulmonary hypertension; Marfan syndrome
- Congenital: isolated or associated with tetralogy of Fallot, VSD, pulmonic stenosis
- AR
- Mid-Diastolic Murmurs
- Mitral
- MS
- Carey-Coombs murmur (mid-diastolic apical murmur in acute rheumatic fever)
- Increased flow across nonstenotic mitral valve (e.g., MR, VSD, PDA, high-output states, and complete heart block)
- Tricuspid
- Tricuspid stenosis
- Increased flow across nonstenotic tricuspid valve (e.g., TR, ASD, and anomalous pulmonary venous return)
- Left and right atrial tumors (myxoma)
- Severe AR (Austin Flint murmur)
- Mitral
