Quadricuspid Aortic Valve: A Rare Cause of Aortic Regurgitation

ABSTRACT: Graphical abstract Highlights • Quadricuspid aortic valve is a rare finding in patients with aortic valvulopathy.• Patients over age 40 with this finding are more likely to have valve dysfunction.• Transesophageal echocardiogram is preferred to evaluate quadricuspid aortic valves.

A rare pediatric cardiac anomaly: Quadricuspid aortic valve with aortic regurgitation.

Project description:A quadricuspid aortic valve is rarely diagnosed in children, but it can be associated with significant aortic regurgitation. It is important for pediatric cardiologists to be aware of this pathologic entity. We present a nine-year-old male, diagnosed with a quadricuspid aortic valve and mild aortic regurgitation.

Quadricuspid Aortic Valve: A Rare Congenital Cause of Aortic Insufficiency.

Project description:Quadricuspid aortic valve (QAV) is a rare congenital cardiac anomaly causing aortic regurgitation usually in the fifth to sixth decade of life. Earlier, the diagnosis was mostly during postmortem or intraoperative, but now with the advent of better imaging techniques such as transthoracic echocardiography, transesophageal echocardiography (TEE), and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, more cases are being diagnosed in asymptomatic patients. We present a case of a 39-year-old male who was found to have QAV, with the help of TEE, while undergoing evaluation for a diastolic murmur. The patient was found to have Type B QAV with moderate aortic regurgitation. We also present a brief review of classification, pathophysiology, and embryological basis of this rare congenital anomaly. The importance of diagnosing QAV lies in the fact that majority of these patients will require surgery for aortic regurgitation and close follow-up so that aortic valve replacement/repair is done before the left ventricular decompensation occurs.

Trans-apical aortic valve implantation for quadricuspid aortic valve with aortic regurgitation using J-valve system: a case reports.

Project description:BackgroundQuadricuspid aortic valve (QAV) is a rare congenital heart defect usually accompanied with different hemodynamic abnormalities. Due to the rarity of QAV, treatment and prognosis of QAV patients with aortic regurgitation still remain challenging. We here present the first case of a patient with severe QAV regurgitation who underwent successful treatment and performed favorable prognosis with transapical aortic valve implantation (TAVI) using J-Valve system.Case presentationA 62-year-old man experienced intermittent palpitation, shortness of breath and chest pain. Echocardiography revealed congenital QAV with massive aortic regurgitation and mild aortic stenosis, left ventricular enlargement. Aortic valve replacement was successfully performed with TAVI using J-Valve system. The postoperation and follow-up was uneventful.ConclusionTAVI using J-Valve system has emerged as a new high success rate method for treatment of patients with simple non-calcified aortic valve insufficiency.

Incidental echocardiographic findings of a quadricuspid aortic valve associated with aortic regurgitation in a cat.

Project description:A 10-month-old male domestic shorthair cat was brought to Kitanomori Animal Hospital for routine castration. Preoperative thoracic radiography revealed a mildly enlarged heart silhouette, and transthoracic echocardiography (ECHO) suggested a quadricuspid aortic valve associated with central aortic regurgitation (regurgitant fraction 31%). After sedation with intramuscular medetomidine and midazolam for castration, heart rate decreased from 193 to 76 beats per minute. ECHO under sedation revealed two equally small and two equally large aortic valve cusps, suggesting a type C quadricuspid aortic valve. The findings were confirmed by real-time three-dimensional ECHO.This case reveals the echocardiographic features of a feline quadricuspid aortic valve and shows that transthoracic ECHO is useful to examine aortic valve morphology in cats. It also suggests that echocardiographic screening may be beneficial for detecting congenital cardiac anomalies in apparently healthy cats.

Quadricuspid aortic valve: A rare intraoperative diagnosis by transesophageal echocardiography.

Project description:Quadricuspid aortic valve (QAV) is a rare congenital anomaly frequently associated with other anomalies particularly coronary anomalies. It may be detected on transthoracic or transesophageal echocardiography. We present here a case report of a 27-year-old male patient with a QAV, the valve being regurgitant and requiring aortic valve replacement. It has been reported as isolated case reports in the literature and various theories exist to the development of QAV. The diagnosis requires a high degree of suspicion and a detailed assessment, and if asymptomatic, then patients need to be carefully followed up for the development of aortic regurgitation.

An Exceedingly Rare Case of Concomitant Quadricuspid Aortic Valve and Atrial Myxoma.

Project description:We present an exceptional case of a quadricuspid aortic valve associated with a left atrial myxoma. Both are rare conditions, and this association has not been reported yet. These conditions can be silent but may lead to several complications. This case highlights importance of a careful echocardiographic evaluation for early management. (Level of Difficulty: Beginner.).
