Unusual Lesions of the Mitral Valve: Two Different Conditions with the Same Imaging Findings.

ABSTRACT: Highlights•Mitral valve (MV) aneurysms are unusual lesions, its incidence is 0.02% to 0.29%.•Most cases of MV aneurysms are a complication of aortic valve endocarditis.•Direct Infection of MV leaflets and degenerative lesions could cause a MV aneurysms.•MV aneurysms are rarely surgical complication, however, it should be kept in mind.

Congenital mitral valve lesions : Correlation between morphology and imaging.

Project description:Congenital malformations of the mitral valve are often complex and affect multiple segments of the valve apparatus. They may occur in isolation or in association with other congenital heart defects. The majority of mitral valve malformations are not simply classified, and descriptive terms with historical significance (parachute, mitral, or arcade) often lack the specificity that cardiac surgeons demand as part of preoperative echocardiographic morphological assessment. This paper examines the strengths and limitations of commonly used descriptions and classification systems of congenitally malformed mitral valves. It correlates pathological, surgical, and echocardiographic findings. Finally, it makes recommendations for the systematic evaluation of the congenitally malformed mitral valve using segmental echocardiographic analysis to assist precise communication and optimal surgical management.

Unusual right ventricle aneurysm and dysplastic pulmonary valve with mitral valve hypoplasia.

Project description:We report a newborn with an unusual combination of aneurysmally dilated thin-walled right ventricle with hypertrophy of the apical muscles of the right ventricle. There was narrow pulmonary annulus, pulmonary regurgitation, and hypoplasia of the mitral valve and left ventricle. We propose that this heart represents a partial form of Uhl's anomaly.

Same-Day Discharge After Transcatheter Native Aortic and Mitral Valve-in-Valve Replacement.

Project description:Transcatheter aortic valve replacement has become the gold standard of care in the management of patients with severe aortic stenosis and transcatheter mitral valve-in-valve replacement seems to be an attractive alternative to redo surgery. We report the first case of concomitant transcatheter aortic valve replacement/transcatheter mitral valve-in-valve replacement that was performed under conscious sedation who was subsequently discharged the same day. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.).

Double orifice mitral valve and bicuspid aortic valve: pieces of the same single puzzle?

Project description:Double orifice mitral valve is a very rare congenital abnormality. Well known associations of this pathology with other congenital lesions point to a complex and central pathophysiological mechanism leading to a sequence of pathologies. These associations have long been realized and arbitrarily defined as Shone complex. We would like to present a 21-year-old patient with double orifice mitral valve associated with bicuspid aortic valve, with a brief review of the literature on possible central mechanisms leading to different subsets of congenital abnormalities involving these two.

Double orifice mitral valve: a report of two cases with different severity and treatment.

Project description:BackgroundDouble orifice mitral valve (DOMV), a rare congenital heart disease, is characterized by a 2-orifice mitral valve (MV) separated by a tissue bridge, causing a spectacles-like morphology. DOMV can present with various severity ranging from asymptomatic to severe valvular dysfunction including mitral regurgitation (MR) and mitral stenosis (MS), as well as symptoms from coexisting congenital anomalies. Echocardiography is the mainstay of the investigation for a DOMV. We described two cases with DOMV who presented with different disease severity resulting in different treatment decisions.Case descriptionIn the first case, a 52-year-old woman presented with overt left-sided heart failure. The echocardiogram revealed DOMV with ruptured chordae tendineae of the anterior mitral valve leaflet (AMVL) causing severe MR which led the patient to undergo surgical MV replacement. Intraoperative findings confirmed a diagnosis of DOMV. After surgery, the patient could perform daily activities and light exercises without recurrent heart failure. In the second case, on the other hand, a 36-year-old woman was incidentally diagnosed with DOMV from an echocardiographic workup for symptomatic premature ventricular contraction (PVC). After controlled PVC with radiofrequency ablation, her symptom completely resolved and DOMV was classified as asymptomatic which led to the decision of a watchful waiting strategy.ConclusionsThese cases highlight the diversity of DOMV manifestations and the importance of appropriate investigations, particularly echocardiography, to evaluate valvular pathology and contemplating the treatment strategy.

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.
