Unique mitral valve mass: Think beyond vegetation.

ABSTRACT: Osteosarcoma is a rare cardiac malignant tumor. This case of cardiac osteosarcoma presented with atrial fibrillation. Initial echocardiogram demonstrated mitral valve echodensity and mitral valve regurgitation. Surgery and histopathological examination identified the tumor as an osteosarcoma. Tumor grade appeared to be prognostically important in cardiac sarcoma, with poor prognosis in high-grade tumors.

A remnant mitral subvalvular apparatus mimicking aortic valve vegetation after mitral valve replacement.

Project description:Preservation of the subvalvular apparatus has the merits of postoperative outcomes during mitral valve replacement for mitral regurgitation. We performed mitral valve replacement with anterior and posterior leaflet chordal preservation in a 65-year-old woman. On the 2nd postoperative day, routine postoperative trans-thoracic echocardiography showed an unknown aortic subvalvular mobile mass. We report a case of a remnant mitral subvalvular apparatus detected by echocardiography after chordal preserving mitral valve replacement which was confused with postoperative aortic valve vegetation.

Selection of the Optimal Candidate to MitraClip for Secondary Mitral Regurgitation: Beyond Mitral Valve Morphology.

Project description:Secondary mitral regurgitation (MR) occurs despite structurally normal valve apparatus due to an underlying disease of the myocardium leading to disruption of the balance between tethering and closing forces with ensuing failure of leaflet coaptation. In patients with heart failure (HF) and left ventricular dysfunction, secondary MR is independently associated with poor outcome, yet prognostic benefits related to the correction of MR have remained elusive. Surgery is not recommended for the correction of secondary MR outside coronary artery bypass grafting. Percutaneous mitral valve repair (PMVR) with MitraClip implantation has recently evolved as a new transcatheter treatment option of inoperable or high-risk patients with severe MR, with promising results supporting the extension of guideline recommendations. MitraClip is highly effective in reducing secondary MR in HF patients. However, the derived clinical benefit is still controversial as two randomized trials directly comparing PMVR vs. optimal medical therapy in severe secondary MR yielded virtually opposite conclusions. We reviewed current evidence to identify predictors of PMVR-related outcomes in secondary MR useful to improve the timing and the selection of patients who would derive maximal benefit from MitraClip intervention. Beyond mitral valve anatomy, optimal candidate selection should rely on a comprehensive diagnostic workup and a fine-tuned risk stratification process aimed at (i) recognizing the substantial heterogeneity of secondary MR and its complex interaction with the myocardium, (ii) foreseeing hemodynamic consequences of PMVR, (iii) anticipating futility and (iv) improving symptoms, quality of life and overall survival.

Mitral valve interstitial Tissue: Myxomatous P2 prolapse of the mitral valve vs. Control

Project description:Aim: Test the hypothesis that 5HT receptors (5HTRs) signaling contributes to MVP pathophysiology. Methods and results: MV RNA was used for microarray analysis of MVP patients versus control, highlighting genes that indicate the involvement of 5HTR pathways and extracellular matrix remodeling in MVP. These canine MVP leaflets (N=5/group) showed 5HTR2B upregulation. Conclusion: In humans, MVP is associated with an upregulation in 5HTR2B expression and increased 5HT receptor signaling in the leaflets. 5HTR signaling is involved not only in previously reported 5HTrelated valvulopathies, but it is also involved in the pathological remodeling of MVP.

Mitral annular fibrous band-a unique morphological variant of a rare congenital mitral valve anomaly: a case report.

Project description:BackgroundLeft atrial bands are rare and can be associated with mitral valve dysfunction, heart failure, and stroke. Most cases are identified on autopsy, and the demonstration in vivo is very uncommon. Various anatomical configurations have been reported. This description of a mitral annular fibrous band contributes to the literature as the first reported case to traverse the supravalvular mitral inflow region, without involving the left atrium.Case summaryA 59-year-old man with a history of metastatic duodenal carcinoma was admitted with a 2-week history of fever and rigors. Inflammatory markers were elevated and blood cultures positive for Enterococcus feacium. Transoesophageal echocardiography performed to investigate for infective endocarditis revealed a 2.3 cm long, thin fibrous band attached to the posterior mitral annulus and extending to the base of the middle scallop of the anterior mitral valve leaflet causing localized tethering, but no valve dysfunction. The band was felt to represent a bystander anatomic variant unrelated to the sepsis, which was most likely gastrointestinal in origin. The patient responded well to intravenous antibiotics.ConclusionsThe presence of an abnormal intracardiac structure in the setting of occult infection should always raise the suspicion of infective endocarditis. Using detailed 2D multiplanar and 3D transoesophageal echocardiography, we were able to identify the anomalous band and exclude any overt infective vegetations attached to the band or the leaflets. Once identified, treatment options range from conservative management to surgical resection and mitral valve surgery if concomitant valvular dysfunction is demonstrated.

A unique case report of mitral valve endocarditis associated with coronary stent infection.

Project description:BackgroundDespite increasing use of percutaneous coronary intervention and stenting, septic complications such as coronary stent infections are rare. We report a unique case of mitral valve infective endocarditis and associated coronary stent infection which emerged 6 months after index stent insertion.Case summaryA 56-year-old previously healthy man underwent percutaneous coronary intervention and stenting of left circumflex (LCx) coronary artery in the setting of non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction. Six months later, he represented with inferior ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction and was found to have a coronary pseudoaneurysm of stented segment of LCx. The pseudoaneurysm was treated with insertion of a covered stent, and immediately following that he developed sepsis with methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus bacteraemia. Comprehensive work-up resulted in the diagnosis of mitral valve endocarditis complicated by coronary stent infection and myocardial abscess formation. He was managed with initial prolonged systemic antibiotic treatment followed by mitral valve replacement. Post-operative course was uneventful with a short duration of oral antibiotics. At 6-year follow-up, the patient was well with the satisfactory echocardiographic result.DiscussionThis is a very rare case of mitral valve endocarditis with extensive cardiac involvement including coronary stent infection and surrounding myocardial abscess. Stents can act as an ideal vector for bacterial adherence from which bacteria could spread to the arterial wall and adjacent myocardium. This case suggests a potential complication of delayed endothelialization and risk of infective complication due to bacterial seeding or embolization.
