Traumatic tricuspid valve regurgitation: A two case series.

Project description:Traumatic tricuspid valve injury is rare, accounting for 0.02% of traumatic injuries. The majority of cases result from blunt force trauma to the chest, however penetrating injuries have been documented in literature. Patients' can be in the full spectrum of disease, from asymptomatic to cardiogenic shock. Indications for surgery include right heart failure or evidence of right heart volume overload in the setting of significant tricuspid regurgitation. Early surgical repair is warranted to preserve right ventricular function. Surgery also needs to be planned in conjunction with the patients' other injuries. In some cases, it may be beneficial for surgery to be delayed whilst the patient is closely observed, in order for the patient to recover from concomitant injuries. We report two cases of tricuspid regurgitation in the context of blunt trauma, and our approach to the management of these patients.

Severe Mitral Regurgitation Following Partial Rupture of Papillary Muscle: The Role of Intraoperative Transesophageal Echocardiography.

Project description:Papillary muscle rupture (PMR) is an uncommon mechanical complication of myocardial infarction which warrants timely diagnosis and urgent surgical intervention to maximize survival chances. Echocardiography is an essential diagnostic tool, whereas transesophageal echocardiography can provide accurate diagnosis and guide decision-making. We hereby present the case of a patient with partial PMR that presented for cardiac surgery in our institution, with the respective intraoperative echocardiographic findings.

Delayed diagnosis of severe traumatic tricuspid regurgitation after traffic injury.

Project description:Traumatic accidents sometimes cause primary traumatic tricuspid regurgitation (TR), and the diagnosis is occasionally delayed due to the load adaptability of the right ventricle, which may lead to fatal outcomes. Here, we report a case of a 28-year-old man with traumatic TR, which presented with late-onset exertional dyspnea 5 years after a blunt chest injury from a bicycle accident. The chordae tendineae of anterior tricuspid leaflet was ruptured with right heart dilatation, and he underwent surgical tricuspid valvuloplasty. For the patients having a chest traumatic accident, echocardiographic screening is recommended considering TR occurrence. <Learning objective: The early detection with echocardiographic screening after chest traumatic accident followed by immediate surgical intervention is crucial to improve the prognosis of traumatic tricuspid regurgitation.>.

Acute severe mitral regurgitation: consideration of papillary muscle architecture.

Project description:We present a case of an individual who presented with acute severe mitral regurgitation in the setting of an inferior ST elevation myocardial infarction. Both transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiography demonstrated a posteriorly directed eccentric jet of severe mitral regurgitation with flail anterior mitral valve leaflet attached presumably to the anterior papillary muscle. Intraoperative findings demonstrated rupture of the postero-medial papillary muscle attached via chords to the anterior mitral valve leaflet. This case serves to remind us that both the anterior and posterior leaflets of the mitral valve are attached to both papillary muscle heads. The direction and eccentricity of the mitral regurgitant jet on echocardiography helps to locate the leaflet involved, but not necessarily the coexisting papillary muscle pathology.

Acute mitral valve regurgitation secondary to papillary muscle rupture due to infective endocarditis.

Project description:BackgroundPapillary muscle rupture due to infective endocarditis is a rare event and proper management of this condition has not been described in the literature. Our case aims to shed light on treatment strategies for these patients using the current guidelines.Case presentationThis case presents a 58-year-old male with acute heart failure secondary to papillary muscle rupture. He underwent an en bloc resection of his mitral valve with a bioprosthetic valve replacement. Specimen pathology later showed necrotic papillary muscle due to infective endocarditis. The patient was further treated with antibiotic therapy. He recovered well post-operatively and continued to do well after discharge.ConclusionIn patients who present with papillary muscle rupture secondary to infective endocarditis, clinical symptoms should drive the treatment strategy. Despite the etiology, early mitral valve surgery remains treatment of choice for patients who have papillary muscle rupture leading to acute heart failure. Culture-guided prolonged antibiotic treatment is vital in this category of patients, especially those who have a prosthetic valve implanted.

Edge-to-edge mitral valve repair for acute mitral valve regurgitation due to papillary muscle rupture: a case report.

Project description:BackgroundPapillary muscle (PM) rupture is a devastating mechanical complication of myocardial infarction that leads to cardiogenic shock and death. In this case, we report a patient with acute mitral regurgitation due to PM rupture that was treated successfully with MitraClip.Case summaryAn 85-year-old female patient with anterior ST-elevation myocardial infarction complicated with PM rupture and acute severe mitral regurgitation was admitted to our hospital. The patient's surgical risk was considered to be prohibitively high, and was therefore, referred for transcatheter edge-to-edge repair with MitraClip. The procedure was successful, and the patient was discharged home in a stable condition.DiscussionAcute mitral regurgitation due to PM rupture is a mechanical complication of myocardial infarction that should be treated early because of high mortality rates. This case highlights the role of MitraClip in acute mitral regurgitation and acute heart failure as an alternative to surgery method in high-risk patients.

Late presentation of traumatic tricuspid valve chordal rupture and pericardial rupture with cardiac herniation: a case report.

Project description:BackgroundAlthough chest trauma happens very often, accompanying tricuspid valve injuries occur rarely and may be manifested by scarce symptoms and signs. Pericardial rupture with cardiac herniation is even a bigger rarity. Transthoracic echocardiography plays a key role in the diagnosis of valve injuries but is of limited value in cardiac herniation.Case presentationWe present the case of 58-year-old man who experienced severe chest trauma in a car accident. Symptoms of right heart failure occurred 10 years after the injury, due to the loss of tricuspid leaflet support caused by the rupture of tendinous chords with significant tricuspid regurgitation. Intraoperatively, old posttraumatic pericardial rupture into left pleura was also found, with partial cardiac herniation and pressure of the edge of pericardium on all left-sided coronary arteries simultaneously. The patient was successfully operated and is free of symptoms 4 years later.ConclusionsThis case emphasizes the importance of timely diagnosis and underlines a mechanism that leads to delayed rupture of the tricuspid valve apparatus. Repeated echocardiography in all patients who experienced chest trauma could be of great importance. Also, given the limited value of echocardiography in posttraumatic pericardial rupture and cardiac herniation, cardiac computed tomography should be performed.

Multiple lipomata of the tricuspid valve and papillary muscle: case report.

Project description:BackgroundCardiac lipomas are rare benign primary tumours of the heart. Due to the nature of these tumours, they are often asymptomatic and diagnosed incidentally. Whether asymptomatic patients with cardiac lipomas should perform surgery still remains controversial.Case summaryA 34-year-old Asian male who was incidentally found hyperechoic masses in the right ventricle (RV) on the transthoracic echocardiogram by annually routine physical examination was admitted to our cardiology department. His medical history was unremarkable. The repeated transthoracic and transoesophageal echocardiogram showed multiple solitary and well-demarcated masses in the RV. On the cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, four discrete masses (considering the possibility of it being a lipoma) partially occluding the right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) were observed. During the open-heart resection surgery, it was found that the tricuspid valve and papillary muscle were covered by multiple adipose masses in the RV that arose from the interventricular septum and the free wall, resulting in partial RVOT obstruction. These excised masses were histopathologically confirmed as lipomata characterized by the mature adipocytes with entrapped myocardial cells. The patient had no cardiac abnormality in the 1-month follow-up after the surgery.DiscussionThis rare clinical case of multiple lipomata of the tricuspid valve and papillary muscle acknowledges that multimodality imaging is the cornerstone for the assessment and diagnosis. Surgery should be performed in cases of symptomatic or large lipomas as well as when a lipoma is considered to be high risk because of RVOT obstruction.
