Severe chronic aortic regurgitation after percutaneous coronary intervention: a case report and literature review.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Severe aortic regurgitation (AR) is an extremely rare complication after coronary catheterization and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), where most reported cases have required relatively urgent surgical intervention due to acute-onset AR and cardiac decompensation.

Case summary

We report a case of a 60-year-old woman that previously presented with a non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) due to an ostial right coronary artery stenosis. During the course of 2 years, she developed five recurrent NSTEMI due to in-stent thrombosis, necessitating either a new coronary stent or balloon. She developed a chronic severe AR due to a drug-eluting coronary stent protruding from the right coronary artery and underwent successful aortic valve replacement and coronary artery by-pass grafting.

Discussion

We performed a literature review and identified 16 reported cases of iatrogenic severe aortic regurgitation related to coronary catheterization or percutaneous coronary intervention. All patients developed an acute aortic regurgitation and, thus, we report the first case of a delayed complication caused by a protruding coronary stent. The surgical strategy is related to the extent of the damage, where smaller perforations or lacerations seems to be feasible for aortic valve repair and larger defects more often lead to aortic valve replacement. Our patient developed a fibrotic right coronary cusp which could not be used to perform a successful aortic valve repair.

Iatrogenic type A aortic dissection complicating percutaneous coronary intervention: a case report.

Project description:Iatrogenic type A dissection caused by percutaneous coronary intervention is a rare but life-threatening condition. Computed tomographic angiography is an excellent diagnostic tool commonly utilized if such procedural complication is clinically suspected. There are, however, potential diagnostic challenges. Herein, we present an illustrative case of iatrogenic type A dissection successfully diagnosed on computed tomography angiography along with a potential diagnostic pitfall.

Subendocardial Ischemia Caused by Acute Severe Aortic Regurgitation Due to Aortic Root Dissection: A Case Report and Literature Review.

Project description:Electrocardiogram (ECG) findings showing ST-segment depression in a wide range of leads and ST-segment elevation in aVR are found in patients with acute coronary syndrome with multivessel coronary lesions and left main trunk lesions. A 64-year-old man with a history of eosinophilic granulomatosis presented with chest pain and dyspnea. Although an ECG showed the above findings, he was diagnosed with acute severe aortic regurgitation (AR) complicating aortic root dissection and successfully underwent urgent Bentall operation. These ECG findings indicated that acute severe AR caused subendocardial ischemia.

Case Report: Emergency High-Risk Percutaneous Coronary Intervention Following Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation in Bicuspid Anatomy.

Project description:Background: Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVR) continues to develop as a valuable alternative to surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) in an increasingly wide spectrum of patients with severe symptomatic aortic stenosis (AS). AS frequently coexists with coronary artery disease, and performing technically challenging percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) following TAVR will become more frequent with increased use of TAVR. Case Summary: We herein report the case of a 53-years-old man with complex medical history including type 1 diabetes and dialysis-dependent renal failure and prior Evolut-R TAVR for critical bicuspid aortic valve stenosis who underwent intravascular ultrasound study (IVUS)-guided PCI to a critical distal left main stem (LMS) and proximal left anterior descending (LAD) lesion after presenting with ventricular fibrillation (VF) secondary to an acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Discussion: Selective engagement of coronary ostia through the side cells of TAVR prosthesis can be challenging, especially in an emergency setting. The particular challenges associated with this case are described, as well as an up-to-date literature search on strategies and equipment that can help in this situation.

Percutaneous coronary intervention in recurrent spontaneous coronary artery dissection: a case report.

Project description:BackgroundSpontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is an infrequent but potentially life-threatening condition in patients with acute myocardial infarction. Conservative medical therapy is recommended in patients with SCAD. However, very little evidence exists in the management of recurrent SCAD when conservative medical therapy fails.Case summaryA 48-year-old woman presented with non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) on a background of cigarette smoking. Her coronary angiogram showed the first diagonal artery (D1) and right marginal branch (RM) occlusion with angiographic appearance that is consistent with SCAD. She was medically managed. She represented 2 months later with another NSTEMI, and her coronary angiogram showed healing SCAD in the D1 and RM, but a new SCAD in the first obtuse marginal artery (OM1). She was managed medically. She represented 4 months later complaining of angina every 2 days. This time her coronary angiogram showed healed SCAD in OM1 and RM, but the recurrence of SCAD in D1. Given that she had recurrent events despite medical therapy, we decided to proceed with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) to D1. She presented with an atypical chest pain 10 months later and her coronary angiogram showed complete healing of all coronary arteries and a patent stent in D1. She has remained symptom free.DiscussionThe management of SCAD is contentious given the lack of randomized clinical trials to assess optimal treatment strategy. In most patients with SCAD, conservative medical therapy is recommended after the diagnosis is secured. We believe that PCI may be beneficial in patients with recurrent SCAD.

Iatrogenic aortic regurgitation following percutaneous coronary intervention: Role of transesophageal echocardiography in the detection and management.

Project description:The incidence aortic valve injury during percutaneous coronary intervention is scarce, mostly resulting in acute aortic regurgitation. However, rarely patients may remain asymptomatic in the immediate post-procedure period and present latter with chronic aortic regurgitation. Determining etiology of such an aortic regurgitation may be challenging. We present a case of a 51-year-old man with history of percutaneous coronary intervention for coronary artery disease and moderate aortic regurgitation scheduled for coronary artery bypass grafting and aortic valve replacement. Intra-operative transesophageal echocardiography was instrumental in deciding etiology of aortic regurgitation that change surgical management of the patient.

Rheumatoid arthritis mimicking infective endocarditis with severe aortic regurgitation and aortic root abscess: a case report.

Project description:BackgroundRheumatoid arthritis (RA) may involve the cardiovascular system and can cause significant structural cardiac disease. RA mimicking infective endocarditis (IE) is rarely reported.Case summaryA 46-year-old man with a medical history of seropositive RA attended a planned outpatient visit for infliximab treatment. The pre-infusion examination revealed a pulse of 41 b.p.m. and the following electrocardiogram showed 3rd degree atrioventricular block. A temporary pacemaker was inserted, and subsequent transthoracic and transoesophageal echocardiograms showed severe aortic valve regurgitation with thickened cusps and thus raised suspicion of infective aortic endocarditis with root abscess. The patient underwent surgery with valve and root replacement the next day. What was thought to be IE, proved to be suppurative and granulomatous inflammation with sporadic necrosis and hyaline fibrosis, compatible with a rheumatoid nodule linked to the patient's RA diagnosis.DiscussionIE is a disease with high mortality and morbidity. In some cases of IE perivalvular cavities develop, most commonly abscesses and/or pseudoaneurysms, which necessitates surgery. Several conditions may mimic IE: for example, malignant and benign tumours, rheumatic diseases, and common age-related valve calcification. In patients with valvular vegetations that are 'culture-negative', alternative pathologies should be considered.

Multivessel percutaneous coronary intervention with bifurcation stenting in a quadfurcated single coronary artery from the right aortic sinus: a case report.

Project description:Background:Quadfurcation of single coronary artery (SCA) from the right is an extremely rare anomaly and acute coronary syndrome in such patients is catastrophic. Case summary:We report a 56-year-old Bangladeshi male who presented with an acute inferior wall ST-elevation myocardial infarction. He was taken to the Cath lab for primary percutaneous coronary intervention which showed the presence of SCA arising from the right aortic sinus with multiple lesions including a bifurcation lesion. Percutaneous coronary intervention was done successfully in two sessions. Discussion:Tackling multiple lesions in a case of SCA with quadfurcation was challenging especially in the setting of SCA and bifurcation lesions. This is first reported case of this kind.

Successful recognition and percutaneous coronary intervention of delayed severe multiple coronary artery dissection caused by cardiac surgery: a case report.

Project description:BackgroundMultiple coronary artery dissection is rare after cardiac surgery. It is difficult to recognize and is easily misdiagnosed as low output syndrome as a result of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).Case presentationA 43-year-old woman who had undergone cardiac surgery presented with unstable hemodynamics, and progressively increasing lactate, B-type natriuretic peptide, and cardiac enzyme levels, along with electrocardiogram (ECG) changes. Angiography indicated the presence of severe multiple coronary artery dissection, and 3 stents were implanted, which improved the patient's hemodynamic status and cardiac function.ConclusionsIn the present report, we describe our experience with identifying and treating delayed severe multiple coronary artery dissection caused by cardiac surgery. Timely angiography is vital in patients suspected with coronary artery dissection, and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) should be considered as a treatment strategy for cases with severe multiple coronary artery dissection and unstable hemodynamics after cardiac surgery.
