Myxomatous degeneration of mitral valve. M-mode and two dimensional echocardiographic findings.
This report presents a patient with an unusual clinical course associated with a mitral "mass" recorded by M-mode and cross-sectional echocardiography. The "mass" was confirmed at operation to be redundant myxomatous mitral valve leaflets. The problem of echocardiographic resolution in the setting of mitral valve prolapse and of the differential diagnosis of mitral mass is discussed in detail.
متن کاملTwo-dimensional echocardiographic findings in double orifice mitral valve.
Between December 1981 and April 1984, five children ranging in age from 1 month to 5 1/2 years examined by two-dimensional echocardiography appeared to have a double orifice mitral valve. The diagnosis was verified in one patient at surgery, one patient by angiography and one patient by necropsy. Associated malformations included mitral stenosis and regurgitation, coarctation of the aorta, osti...
متن کاملLong-term effect of sildenafil on echocardiographic parameters in dogs with asymptomatic myxomatous mitral valve degeneration
Sildenafil is a selective phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitor that has been demonstrated to delay ventricular remodeling in humans and experimental animals. The aim of this prospective study was to assess the chronic effects of sildenafil administration on echocardiographic indices and N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) in dogs with naturally occurring, asymptomatic myxomatous mitr...
متن کامل[Echocardiographic findings of mitral valve prolapse].
Prolaps mitralnog zalistka (PMZ) predstavlja pomeranje jednog ili oba listića mitralnog zalistka u levu pretkomoru, iznad ravni mitralnog anulusa, tokom sistole, sa ili bez mitralne regurgitacije 1, . Zbog vrlo velikih varijacija u patološkim, kliničkim i ehokardiografskim manifestacijama, ovaj poremećaj izazvao je zbunjenost i brigu kako lekara, tako i bolesnika. Tokom poslednje dve decenije m...
متن کاملDynamic phenotypes of degenerative myxomatous mitral valve disease: quantitative 3-dimensional echocardiographic study.
BACKGROUND Fibro-elastic deficiency (FED) and diffuse myxomatous degeneration (DMD) are phenotypes of degenerative mitral valve disease defined morphologically. Whether physiological differences in annular and valvular dynamics exist between these phenotypes remains unknown. METHODS AND RESULTS We performed triple quantitation of cardiac remodeling and of mitral regurgitation severity and of ...
