Ruptured mitral chordae tendineae.
AMONG THE LESIONS responsible for insufficiency of the mitral valve is rupture of the chordae tendineae. It is our purpose to describe the significant clinical and pathologic findings in 20 cases of insufficiency of the mitral valve due to rupture of the chordae tendineae. This report is based on those cases in which ruptured mitral chordae tendineae were found at necropsy at the Mayo Clinic du...
متن کاملMitral Valve Repair: The Chordae Tendineae
Repair of the mitral valve is the treatment of choice for mitral valve regurgitation when the anatomy is favorable. It is well known that mitral valve repair enjoys better clinical and functional results than any other type of valve substitute. This fact is beyond doubt regardless of the etiology of the valve lesion and is of particular importance in degenerative diseases.This review analyzes t...
متن کاملCongenital aortic valve disease with rupture of mitral chordae tendineae.
A new clinical entity is described in which free aortic regurgitation from congenital aortic valve disease caused rupture of the chordae to the anterior leaflet of the mitral valve in 7 men aged 45 to 63 years (mean 52 years); 2 of the patients also had rupture of chordae to the posterior leaflet. Comparing these patients with those with ruptured mitral chordae in association with rheumatic he...
متن کاملAcute mitral regurgitation in pregnancy due to ruptured chordae tendineae.
Rupture of chordae tendineae resulting in acute mitral regurgitation has previously been described following rheumatic fever, subacute bacterial endocarditis, blunt chest trauma, and in Marfan's syndrome. Chordae may rupture spontaneously in older patients, producing a characteristic clinical syndrome, but such 'idiopathic' rupture is exceptional before the age of 50. This paper reports the occ...
متن کاملTwo-dimensional echocardiographic recognition of ruptured chordae tendineae.
Real-time, phased-array, two-dimensional echocardiographic studies identified ruptured chordae tendineae in five patients: four patients had a flail mitral valve and one had flail mitral and tricuspid valves. The characteristic abnormality was a rapid systolic motion of the involved leaflet beyond the line of valve closure into the atrium. The maximal abnormal systolic motion was greatest at th...
