== Etiology ==
*Congenital pulmonic stenosis is most common.
*Rheumatic involvement is rare, is usually part of  multivalvular involvement, rarely leads to serious deformity.
*Carcinoid plaques can be present in the carcinoid syndrome. These result in constriction of the pulmonic valve ring, retraction and fusion of the valve cusps.
