二维超声心动图允许可视化的瓣膜环脓肿并发感染性心内膜炎的四名患者。脓肿形成被定义为感染瓣膜周围组织内的无回声腔。瓣环脓肿延伸至瓣周结构，包括上室间隔（1例患者）、左心室心肌（1例患者）和连续纤维结构（3例患者）。二维超声心动图是直接观察感染性心内膜炎并发脓肿腔的唯一非侵入性技术，可以更好地了解感染性心内膜炎并发症的发病率、演变和自然（或非自然）过程。
Two dimensional echocardiography permitted visualization of a valve ring abscess complicating infective endocarditis in four patients. Abscess formation was defined as an echo-free cavity within tissues surrounding the infected valve. Abscess in the valve ring extended into the perivalvular structures, including the upper ventricular septum (one patient), left ventricular myocardium (one patient) and contiguous fibrous structures (three patients). Two dimensional echocardiography is the only noninvasive technique for direct visualization of the abscess cavity complicating infective endocarditis and may allow better appreciation of incidence, evolution and natural (or unnatural) course of this heretofore seldom recognized complication of infective endocarditis.
