A 27-Year-Old Woman With Postpartum Papillary Muscle Rupture.

Project description:Postpartum papillary muscle rupture (PMR) is extremely uncommon and tolerated poorly with limited management options other than emergency surgical intervention. This case demonstrates the challenges of postpartum PMR in a young woman with unrecognized vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome and highlights the importance of preconception screening of cardiovascular disease. (Level of Difficulty: Beginner.).

A 56-Year-Old Man with Mitral Regurgitation and Acute Pulmonary Edema: Rupture of the Papillary Muscle or Infective Endocarditis?

Project description:Graphical abstract Highlights • Several conditions such as IE and papillary muscle rupture can cause acute MR.• A ruptured papillary muscle may in rare cases mimic an infectious vegetation.• Echocardiography can in most cases accurately diagnose the cause of MR.• Image quality should be considered in the diagnostic progression.• Papillary muscle rupture may be entangled by chordae preventing complete flail.

Interventricular Septal Rupture in a 62-Year-Old Man With Familial Amyloid Polyneuropathy.

Project description:Cardiac involvement in familial amyloid polyneuropathy consists of arrhythmias, conduction disturbances, and heart failure. To our knowledge, heart rupture has never been described in association with this condition. We report the case of a 62-year-old man with a 6-year history of refractory familial amyloid polyneuropathy who underwent liver transplantation. The operation was complicated by severe hypotension because the neuropathy involved the autonomic system. Perioperatively, the patient had a myocardial infarction, and during the next 10 days, a complete interventricular septal rupture developed, resulting in a systemic-to-pulmonary shunt. Coronary angiographic findings were normal. However, the shunt caused unstable hemodynamics, resulting in cardiogenic shock. An attempt to close the rupture percutaneously failed. The patient underwent successful heart transplantation 50 days later. Macroscopic examination of the explanted heart showed thickening of both ventricles, septal rupture, and a gray scar in the interventricular septum around the cavity. Histopathologic examination revealed intramural amyloid angiopathy. Our case shows that heart rupture can occur in patients with familial amyloid polyneuropathy who have no history of obstructive coronary artery disease, perhaps as a result of tissue fragility caused by amyloid angiopathy. Therefore, autonomic disturbances should be regarded with concern and promptly treated in the perioperative period.

Palpitations in a 64-year-old man.

Project description:A 64-year-old man presented with several weeks of intermittent irregular palpitations. He had no prior history of cardiac disease, hypertension or syncope. A 12-lead ECG revealed sinus rhythm with premature atrial and ventricular contractions and high QRS voltages consistent with LV-hypertrophy. Cardiac MR revealed asymmetrical septal hypertrophy and marked mid-myocardial hyperenhancement of the interventricular septum.

Idiopathic posterior papillary muscle rupture; a case report.

Project description:BackgroundPapillary muscle rupture is a rare condition. Its clinical presentation, diagnosis and management can be very challenging for the clinician.Case presentationA 73-year-old woman with hypertension presented with chest pain, ST-segment changes, and elevated serum troponin levels. Coronary angiography was normal. Echocardiography revealed normal ventricular function, flail posterior mitral leaflet, and severe mitral regurgitation. She underwent emergent mitral valve replacement.ConclusionThe diagnostic and management strategies of this uncommon presentation are discussed.
