A rare case of prosthetic aortic valve endocarditis complicated with multiple fistula to peri aortic structure
Multiple aorto-cardiac cavity communications is very rare but important complication of prosthetic aortic valve endocarditis. The case below illustrates multiple aorto-cardiac cavity fistula formation following prostethic aortic valve endocarditis presented with slowly progressive symptoms of heart failure. A brief review of surgical reconstruction and the existing literature are presented, i...
متن کاملSurgical management of aortic prosthetic valve endocarditis
Background: Infective endocarditis (IE) is still associated with high mortality and morbidity despite advances in diagnostic, medical and surgical management. Aims: 1. To report shortand mid-term results after surgical treatment of IE in the current era and to compare the results between native valve endocarditis (NVE) and prosthetic valve endocarditis (PVE). 2.

The infected valve was native in 29 patients and prosthetic in 20 patients. The patients' mean age was 50±14 years, and ...
متن کاملSurgical-transcatheter approach for endocarditis of a calcified aortic homograft.
Repeat aortic valve replacement (AVR) after freestanding homograft root replacement with reimplantation of the coronary arteries is challenging and risky, especially in patients with major homograft wall calcifications. Although new transcatheter techniques for AVR may offer an alternative in structurally degenerated homografts, they are not suitable to treat endocarditis. Here, the case is rep...
متن کاملSurgical treatment of aortic valve endocarditis: a 26-year experience
OBJECTIVE We have retrospectively analyzed the results of the operations made for aortic valve endocarditis in a single center in 26 years. METHODS From June 1985 to January 2011, 174 patients were operated for aortic valve endocarditis. One hundred and thirty-eight (79.3%) patients were male and the mean age was 39.3±14.4 (9-77) years. Twenty-seven (15.5%) patients had prosthetic valve endoc...
