ANTIPHOSPHOLIPID ANTIBODY SYNDROME-A CASE OF AORTIC VALVE INSUFFICIENCY
A 31 year old woman was hospitalized for evaluation of aortic valve insufficiency and her present cardiac status. Clinical and paraclinical findings strongly suggested the presence of a collagen vascular inflammatory processprecisely, the antiphospholipid antibody syndrome (APS), with systemic lupus erythematosus as the underlying disease.
متن کامل[Aortic valve sparing in 120 patients with aortic root aneurysms].
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES Several aortic valve sparing techniques have been described for the treatment of aortic root aneurysms. We report our experience using the reimplantation technique in 120 patients. METHODS Between March 2004 and October 2010, 120 patients with aortic root aneurysms underwent David operations. Of these, 51 were diagnosed with Marfan syndrome. Mean patient age was 31...
متن کاملAortic valve and aneurysms.
The aorta is the highway in the human circulation, and accordingly any functional or structural change is associated with severe symptoms or even a fatal outcome. The aortic valve is the door to the aorta and it opens up to 3 billion times in a lifetime. If not perfectly built by nature, e.g. in biscuspid valve disease or tricuspid valves with raphe, aortic sclerosis and eventually stenosis are...
متن کاملValve-sparing aortic root replacement and aortic valve repair in a patient with acromegaly and aortic root dilatation
Aortic regurgitation and dilatation of the aortic root and ascending aorta are severe complications of acromegaly. The current trend for management of an aortic root aneurysm is valve-sparing root replacement as well as restoring the diameter of the aortic sinotubular junction (STJ) and annulus. Our case report supports the recommendation that in patients with acromegaly, severe aortic root inv...
متن کاملDoes aortic valve repair in valve-sparing aortic root reconstruction compromise the longevity of the procedure?
OBJECTIVES: The effect of performing aortic valve repair in combination with valve-sparing operation on the length of time for which patients are free from reoperation is unclear. The objective of this study was to determine if the performance of aortic valve repair during valve-sparing operation modified the freedom from reoperation time. METHODS: From January 2003 to July 2014, 78 patients ...
