Abstract (2. Language): 
Mitral valve disease is the most seen valvulopathy in rheumatic heart disease. Approximately 40 percent of all patients with rheumatic heart disease have combined mitral stenosis and mitral regurgitation. 35 years o ld woman suffering from dyspnea which had been begun one year ago and history of edema of extremites was admitted our cardiology department. In PA chest roentgenogram cardiothoracic ratio was 0.9. In echocardiographic evaluation of the heart left ventricular, left atrium, right ventricular and right atrium diameters are as follows; 13,8 cm, 12 cm, 5,5 cm, 10,4 cm. In doppler echocardiography confirmed with 40 mitral regurgitation, 40 tricuspit regurgitation, pulmonary artery pressure 50 mmHg, ejection fract ion 45 % have seen and no important symptomatology was seen before one year ago. We offer our patient becau se of having one of the biggest cardiomegaly that we find out and does not have any important complaint until a year ago.
Abstract (Original Language): 
Romatizmal kalp kapak hastalıklarında en fazla mitral kapak tutulumu olur. Olgul arın % 40'ında mitral darlık ve mitral yetmezlik beraber bulunur. Semptomlar kapak hastalığının derecesi ve sol ventrikül fonksiyonuyla uyumludur. Dispne, ortopne, yaygın ödem nedeniyle başvuran 35 yaşındaki bayan hastanın teleradyografisinde kardiyotorasik oran artmış (0.9), toraks orta-alt kısımlarında akciğer dokusu izlenmiyordu. Ekokardiyografisinde sol ventrikül diyastolik çapı 13,8 cm, sol atriyum çapı 12 cm, sağ ventrikül çapı 5,5 cm, sağ atriyum çapı 10,4 cm , 4 0 mitral yetmezlik, hafif mitral darlık, 40 triküspit yetmezlik saptandı. Sol ventrikü l ejeksiyon fraksiyonu % 45 ve pulmoner arter basıncı 50 mmHg olarak hesaplandı. Hasta semptomlarının son bir yı ldır mevcut olduğunu ifade ediyordu. Hastamızı bu zamana kadar saptadığımız en ileri kardiyomegalili olgu o lması ve bir yıl öncesine kadar önemli bir semptom tariflememesi nedeniyle sunmayı uygun bulduk.
