With the question “Can patients with 1/4 pulmonary valve regurgitation play sports? ", the doctor would like to answer as follows:
If it is true you have a 1/4 pulmonary valve regurgitation, it is a very mild regurgitation (detected only on ultrasound) and has no clinical significance that requires treatment (may be simple). odd and accidentally discovered).
