Acute mitral valve obstruction during infective endocarditis.
Five patients were found during surgery or at necropsy to have the mitral valve orifice obstructed by vegetations. They had had unexplained severe and recurrent episodes of acute febrile pulmonary oedema, and four had few cardiac ausculatory findings. Three patients died suddenly and unexpectedly; the other two were operated on and survived. In view of its ominous prognosis, acute mitral valve ...
متن کاملPapillary Fibroelastoma of the Mitral Valve: an Unusual Cause of Mitral Valve Obstruction
A 50-year-old adult female was admitted to our outpatient clinic with a complaint of dyspnea on effort. Cardiac examination revealed a diastolic murmur best heard at the apex, but was otherwise unremarkable. Transthoracic echocardiography demonstrated a mobile, spherical, hyperechoic, homogeneous mass attached to the posterior mitral leaflet which was causing significant mitral stenosis. 2-dime...
متن کاملSystolic anterior motion of the mitral valve and outflow obstruction after mitral valve reconstruction.
Multiple papillomas ofthe tracheobronchial tree are rare in children and adults. We describe a 42-year-old woman with multiple papillomatous-like tumors involving the trachea and bronchi. The limited tissue samples obtained during fiberoptic bronchoscopy initially lead to a benign histopathologic diagnosis; concurrent cytology studies strongly suggested oat cell carcinoma. The biopsy specimen o...
متن کاملPulmonary vasoconstriction induced by mitral valve obstruction in sheep.
We hypothesized that left atrial hypertension results in pulmonary vasoconstriction, which is obscured by the expected passive decrease in pulmonary vascular resistance. The objectives of this study were to demonstrate and quantify the vasoconstrictive changes that occur in the pulmonary circulation during experimental left atrial hypertension, to determine the site of vasoconstriction, and to ...
متن کاملEcho-phonocardiographic evaluation of obstruction of prosthetic mitral valve.
Echo-phonocardiograms of 64 patients with multiple types of prosthetic mitral valves (PMV) were evaluated. Six patients demonstrated findings suggesting valve obstruction: four had surgical confirmation of prosthetic obstruction, one reduced cardiac output and pulmonary hypertension but no prosthetic dysfunction at surgery, and one is asymptomatic. Three of four patients with confirmed obstruct...
