A Ruptured Mitral Valve Aneurysm as Complication of a Bicuspid Aortic Valve Endocarditis.

Project description:We present a case of a ruptured mitral valve (MV) aneurysm as a complication of a bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) endocarditis. It is about a young 35-year-old man, admitted to Cardiology Unit because of unexpected heart failure picture. We found a BAV endocarditis complicated by anterior MV-anterior leaflet aneurysm formation and subsequent severe MV regurgitation caused by aneurysm perforation. It was a particular and rare situation characterized by an infection of anterior mitral leaflet secondary to an infected regurgitant jet of a primary aortic infective endocarditis due to a BAV. A resulting aneurysm formation on the atrial side of the mitral anterior leaflet leads later to mitral perforation. In this article, we review the more relevant medical literature on this topic.

Left atrial endocarditis as a rare complication of mitral valve endocarditis: a clinical case.

Project description:BackgroundInfective Endocarditis (IE) is considered as a multifaceted problem in every aspect from etiology and presentation to diagnosis and management. Early recognition of this disease and especially its complications, remain a critical task for the cardiologist. Atrial endocarditis is a rare and sometimes unrecognized complication of mitral valve endocarditis.Case presentationWe present a 48 year-old male patient who was admitted to our clinic because of recent onset of malaise, fever, jaundice and peripheral edema. Important physical findings were peripheral stigmata of IE in addition to holosystolic murmur over the left sternal border. Transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiophy revealed a severe eccentric MR due to a flailed posterior mitral valve caused by IE. The presence of atrial septal endocarditis caused by jet streaming was also observed. Blood culture was positive for streptococcus oralis and antibiotic therapy was immediately initiated. Considering the large burden of infective tissue, the patient was planned for an early surgical intervention. A minimally invasive resection of the atrial mass, direct closure of the defect, resection of the diseased portions of mitral leaflets and implantation of a biological mitral valve prosthesis was performed. Intra-operative and histological findings confirmed provisional diagnosis by echocardiography.ConclusionsTogether with comprehensive echocardiographic evaluation, attention should be placed on mural vegetations and excluded among all cases of mitral valve endocarditis, particularly those with severe eccentric regurgitant jets.

Ruptured mitral valve abscess with mitral incompetence in culture negative infective endocarditis: case report.

Project description:IntroductionPerivalvular abscess in native valve infective endocarditis (IE) is associated with significantly increased mortality.Case descriptionHerein, we report a 29 year old Indian male who presented with culture negative IE with perivalvular abscess and severe mitral regurgitation requiring mitral valve replacement.DiscussionInitial approach is very difficult in terms of when IE presents as culture negative. This case highlights the important role of echocardiography in the management of culture negative IE.

Cardiac pseudoaneurysm as a complication of native mitral valve infective endocarditis.

Project description:BackgroundThe delayed development of a mitral valve annulus pseudoaneurysm is a rare and late complication of a native mitral abscess cavity.Case summaryCurrently, there are no documented cases of a pseudoaneurysm developing from an abscess cavity of the posterior annulus of the native mitral valve. We report a case of a patient who presented with worsening progressive shortness of breath that was found to be secondary to a pseudoaneurysm. This was detected by 2D echocardiogram and cardiac computed tomography angiography.DiscussionIn our case, the patient developed a late complication of a ventricular pseudoaneurysm originating from the mitral annular area of the abscess cavity. Per the surgical literature, one method to avoid the aforementioned complication is via cavity repair with a bovine patch.

Left ventricular pseudoaneurysm as a complication of prosthetic mitral valve infective endocarditis.

Project description:We report a case of infective endocarditis complicated with left ventricular pseudoaneurysm originating from the posterior annulus of the prosthetic mitral valve in a 56-year-old woman. Despite prolonged antibiotic treatment, transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) showed partial detachment of the prosthesis from the posterior mitral annulus. Three-dimensional rotational computed tomography clearly demonstrated a pseudoaneurysm toward the posterolateral portion of the mitral prosthetic valve, which was not evident by TEE. Valve replacement and repair of the pseudoaneurysm were performed 83 days after initiation of antibiotic therapy. Left ventricular pseudoaneurysm is a rare but serious complication of mitral prosthetic valve endocarditis. It requires prompt diagnosis and early surgical intervention. <Learning objective: We present a case of infective endocarditis (IE) complicated with left ventricular pseudoaneurysm originating from the prosthetic mitral valve. Repeated transesophageal echocardiography is recommended for all IE patients when perivalvular extension is suspected. Electrocardiography-gated three-dimensional-computed tomography is useful for detection and evaluation of pseudoaneurysm, especially in planning surgical procedures.>.

Mitral valve leaflet diverticulum with vegetation-a rare complication in rheumatic heart disease.

Project description:Diverticulum of mitral leaflet is a rare complication, which is recognized by its central clearing with characteristic diastolic collapse and systolic expansion on echocardiogram. It is found to be commonly associated with infective endocarditis while various other mechanisms of its formation have been suggested. The present case with an underlying history of rheumatic heart disease complicated by infective endocarditis well demonstrates the formation of mitral leaflet diverticulum and its possible complications. Surgical findings revealed diverticulum of the anterior mitral leaflet, and the patient underwent double valve replacement.

Cardiogenic Shock and Mitral Valve Chord Rupture: A Rare Presentation of Libman-Sacks Endocarditis.

Project description:Distinguishing Libman-Sacks endocarditis from other valvular heart disease etiologies has important implications for management. We present a case of a 23-year-old man who presented in extremis with fever and cardiogenic shock caused by Libman-Sacks endocarditis with associated mitral valve chord rupture. (Level of Difficulty: Beginner.).
