Pulmonary stenosis: Many innocent murmurs are flow through the pulmonary artery because it is close to the chest wall. Actual pulmonary valve stenosis has associated findings which help identify it on physical exam in addition to the murmur. The actual murmur may be somewhat similar. When a question exists echocardiography generally will answer the question.
