Atrioventricular valve rupture in neonatal lupus is rare. A majority of patients with valve rupture had antenatally detected endocardial fibroelastosis in the valvar apparatus. Appropriate and expedited surgical repair of ruptured atrioventricular valves is feasible and has a low mortality risk. Rupture of both atrioventricular valves occurring at close intervals carries a high mortality risk.
