          Abstract

          A quadricuspid aortic valve (QAV) is a rare congenital anomaly characterized by the presence of four leaflets in the aortic valve. We are reporting a case of a 59-year-old male who presented to the emergency department with non-cardiac chest pain. The discovery of QAV during the evaluation highlights the importance of considering cardiac causes, even in cases where the presenting symptoms may not appear directly related to the heart.
