A "gurgling" murmur is typically associated with valvular insufficiency (also known as valvular regurgitation), which occurs when the valve doesn't close properly and allows blood to leak back in the wrong direction. Valvular stenosis, on the other hand, produces a harsh or "rough" sounding murmur.
