Transthoracic echocardiography versus transesophageal echocardiography for rupture sinus of Valsalva aneurysm.

ABSTRACT: We report a rare case of sinus of Valsalva aneurysm of both right and left coronary sinus (LCS), with perforation of the LCS opening into the left ventricle. The LCS aneurysm with its perforation was undiagnosed on transthoracic echocardiography emphasizing the role of transesophageal echocardiography in delineating the anatomy.

Three-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography-guided transcathetar closure of ruptured noncoronary sinus of valsalva aneurysm.

Project description:Sinus of Valsalva aneurysm accounts for only 1% of congenital cardiac anomalies. Sinus of Valsalva aneurysm can cause aortic insufficiency, coronary artery flow compromise, cardiac arrhythmia, or aneurysm rupture. Three-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography (3DTEE) represents an adjunctive tool to demonstrate the ruptured sinus of Valsalva with better delineation. We present an adult patient with rupture of noncoronary sinus of Valsalva aneurysm into the right atrium (RA). 3DTEE accurately delineated the site of rupture into the RA and showed the exact size and shape of the defect, which helped in the successful transcatheter closure of the defect with a duct occluder device.

Very late recurrence of sinus of Valsalva aneurysm rupture after patch repair.

Project description:BackgroundSinus of Valsalva aneurysm (SVA) is an uncommon cardiac defect accounting for only 1% of congenital cardiac anomalies and the most common complication is ruptured into the atrium or ventricle. Very late recurrence of ruptured SVA after patch repair is extremely rare.Case presentationWe present a case of 57-year-old man had received repair for ruptured Sinus of Valsalva aneurysm at 19 ages. In the clinics, he presented with exertional dyspnea and leg swelling. The serial examination disclosed he had bicuspid aortic valve and very late rupture of SVA connecting to right atrium. After surgical repair again, he was discharged smoothly.ConclusionA very late recurrence of ruptured SVA after surgical repair was rare. We reported a case with unique echocardiographic presentation and a successful repair.

Transesophageal Versus Transthoracic Echocardiography for Assessment of Left Ventricular Diastolic Function.

Project description:Background:Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) has not been compared to transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) for assessment of left ventricular diastolic function (LVDF). Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction is common in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), a disease model of premature myocardial disease. Methods:66 patients with SLE (mean age 36±12 years, 91% women) and 26 age-and-sex matched healthy volunteers (mean age 34±11 years, 85% women) underwent TEE immediately followed by TTE. From basal four-chamber views, mitral inflow E and A velocities, E/A ratio, E deceleration time, isovolumic relaxation time, septal and lateral mitral E' and A' velocities, septal E'/A' ratio, mitral E to septal and lateral E' ratios, and pulmonary veins systolic to diastolic peak velocities ratio were measured. Measurements were averaged over 3 cardiac cycles and performed by 2 independent observers. Results:LVDF parameters were worse in patients than in controls by TEE and TTE (all p?0.03). Most LVDF parameters were similar within each group by TEE and TTE (all p?0.17). By both techniques, mitral E and A, mitral and septal E/A ratios, septal and lateral E', septal and lateral E/E' ratios, and average E/E' ratio were highly correlated (r=0.64-0.96, all p?0.003); E deceleration time, isovolumic relaxation time, and septal A' velocities were moderately correlated (r=0.43-0.54, all p?0.03); and pulmonary veins systolic to diastolic ratio showed the lowest correlation (r=0.27, p=0.04). Conclusion:By TEE and TTE, LVDF parameters were worse in SLE patients than in controls; and in both groups, LVDF parameters assessed by TEE and TTE were similar and significantly correlated.

Transesophageal echocardiography for coronary sinus imaging in partially unroofed coronary sinus.

Project description:BackgroundPartially unroofed coronary sinus (PUCS) is a rare congenital cardiac anomaly and prone to be misdiagnosed. The purpose of this study was to explore the value of transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) in CS imaging for the detection of PUCS and to develop a special two-dimensional TEE-based en face view of CS.MethodsTwenty adult patients with suspected PUCS, showing a dilated coronary sinus and an enlarged right heart on transthoracic echocardiography (TTE), underwent TEE examination. In the mid-esophageal plane and close to an angle of 120°, the en face view of the CS successfully imaged the roof of the CS, which was beyond the realm of the atrial septum, and the interatrial septum was obtained simultaneously in the same view. Meanwhile, the 3D zoom mode could clearly display the comprehensive volume image and the adjacent structures of the PUCS. The results of TEE were compared with the findings of surgery or catheterization.ResultsEn face view of the CS was obtained successfully by 2DTEE in 20 patients. In addition, 3DTEE was used for imaging of PUCS in 11 of the 20 patients. PUCS was ultimately confirmed in 13 patients either by surgery or catheterization. The TEE for PUCS diagnosis was consistent with the surgical findings.ConclusionTransesophageal echocardiography can be successfully applied to obtain the comprehensive view of CS and its surrounding structures. The en face view of CS provided by 2DTEE may be helpful in better understanding PUCS and discriminating it from associated atrial septal defects.

Transthoracic minimally invasive closure for the treatment of ruptured sinus of Valsalva aneurysm: immediate and mid-term follow-up results.

Project description:BackgroundWe aimed to evaluate the immediate and mid-term outcomes of transthoracic minimally invasive closure (TMIC) of ruptured sinus of Valsalva aneurysm (RSVA), which is a rare and mostly congenital heart disease.MethodsFrom January 2014 to November 2020, 19 patients (16 males, 3 females) with RSVA were selected for TMIC and were followed up at our centre. Data were analysed from our prospectively collected database and clinical mid-term follow-up was obtained.ResultsAmong these 19 cases, transthoracic echocardiography showed rupture of the right coronary sinus to the right atrium in 9 patients, non-coronary sinus rupture to the right atrium in 7 patients, and right coronary sinus rupture to the right ventricle in 3 patients. Most (13/19) cases were New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional class III or IV. The mean diameters of the defect from the aortic end and ruptured site were 8.8±3.0 and 6.4±2.6 mm, respectively. TMIC was attempted using ventricular septal defect (VSD)/patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) occluders 2-7 mm larger than the aortic ends of the defects. All patients were successfully treated by TMIC and achieved complete closure at discharge after a mean hospital stay length of 6.2±2.5 days. Seventeen patients were NYHA class I while 2 patients were NYHA class II. No cases of residual shunts, device embolization, infective endocarditis, or aortic regurgitation were observed during a median follow-up of 36 months (range, 16-84 months).ConclusionsIn appropriately selected cases with RSVA, TMIC is an attractive alternative to surgery, with a high technical success rate and encouraging short-term and mid-term outcomes. However, long-term follow-up is needed.

Sinus of Valsalva Aneurysm: A Rare Cause of Dyspnea.

Project description:Sinus of Valsalva aneurysm (SOVA) is a rare clinical entity. Clinical manifestations can vary from an incidental finding on an imaging study to a life-threatening emergency. We report a case of a 51-year-old female with a large symptomatic left SOVA. Echocardiogram and computed tomography angiography (CTA) of the chest revealed marked dilatation of the left sinus of Valsalva, measuring 7.5 cm. This resulted in superior displacement of the left main coronary artery. Surgical repair of the aneurysm with reimplantation of the right and left coronary arteries was performed in addition to aortic valve replacement (Bentall procedure). The patient had an uneventful postoperative course and remains asymptomatic at the three-month follow-up visit.
