Mitral-Aortic Intervalvular Fibrosa Pseudoaneurysm
Pseudoaneurysm of the mitral aortic intervalvular fibrosa (MAIVF-P) usually ensues as a complication of endocarditis or aortic valve surgery. When large, symptomatic or related to complications (rupture, compression of adjacent structures, embolic events, mitral regurgitation or heart failure) it warrants surgical excision. The natural course of uncomplicated/asymptomatic MAIVF-Ps is largely un...
متن کاملPseudoaneurysm of mitral-aortic intervalvular fibrosa.
Pseudoaneurysm of the mitral-aortic intervalvular fibrosa (MAIVF) is one of the rare complications of infective endocarditis. Echocardiography plays an important role in the diagnosis of this condition. Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) is generally superior to the transthoracic approach in the evaluation of the complications resulting from infective endocarditis. In this report, we discus...

متن کاملA Rare and Life-Threatening Complication of Infective Endocarditis: Pseudoaneurysm of the Mitral - Aortic Intervalvular Fibrosa.
UNLABELLED A 59 year-old previously healthy male was admitted to the hospital with fever reportedly several days in duration. His physical examination was unremarkable at first. Pneumonia was initially diagnosed, but acute pulmonary edema with a new grade III to and fro murmur developed 1 week later. Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) disclosed a pseudoaneurysm of the mitral-aortic interval...
متن کاملEchocardiographic Diagnosis and Outcome of Pseudoaneurysm of the Mitral-Aortic Intervalvular Fibrosa
Pseudoaneurysm of the mitral-aortic intervalvular fibrosa (P-MAIVF) is a rare but potentially fatal entity. Early diagnosis and surgical treatment are particularly important to decrease risk of mortality. The purpose of this study was to explore the echocardiographic characteristics and outcome of P-MAIVF and to evaluate the potential application of three-dimensional (3D) echocardiography in th...
