متن کاملMitral Valve Repair: The Chordae Tendineae

It is well known that mitral valve repair enjoys better clinical and functional results than any other type of valve substitute. This fact is beyond doubt regardless of the etiology of the valve lesion and is of particular importance in degenerative diseases.This review analyzes t...
متن کاملAcute mitral regurgitation in pregnancy due to ruptured chordae tendineae.
Rupture of chordae tendineae resulting in acute mitral regurgitation has previously been described following rheumatic fever, subacute bacterial endocarditis, blunt chest trauma, and in Marfan's syndrome. Chordae may rupture spontaneously in older patients, producing a characteristic clinical syndrome, but such 'idiopathic' rupture is exceptional before the age of 50. This paper reports the occ...
متن کاملHypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy and Severe Mitral Regurgitation due to Chordae Tendineae Rupture. An Unusual Coexistence
A 60-year-old gentleman came to the cardiac emergency room of our hospital complaining of a 3-day long shortness of breath and orthopnea. The patient gave a history of prior diagnosis of hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM) a few years back, while he had been treated with a beta-blocker (metoprolol 50 mg bid).

متن کاملCongenital aortic valve disease with rupture of mitral chordae tendineae.
A new clinical entity is described in which free aortic regurgitation from congenital aortic valve disease caused rupture of the chordae to the anterior leaflet of the mitral valve in 7 men aged 45 to 63 years (mean 52 years); 2 of the patients also had rupture of chordae to the posterior leaflet. Comparing these patients with those with ruptured mitral chordae in association with rheumatic he...
