Two dehiscences of the aortic valve commissure and cusp with progressive acute aortic regurgitation.

چکیده
A 54-year-old female with acute heart failure due to aortic regurgitation (AR) was admitted to our hospital. Following admission, her condition worsened progressively; thus, surgery was performed prematurely. During surgery, two dehiscences were visualized in the aortic valve commissure between the right and left cusps and the upper part of the left coronary artery ostium. However we scheduled aortic valve replacement (AVR) at first, we made the shift to perform the aortic root replacement for reinforcement of the aortic wall around the left coronary artery ostium. We describe a rare case of two dehiscences at the aortic root, which is the first report.

Nontraumatic avulsion of aortic valve commissure as a cause of acute aortic valve regurgitation
BACKGROUND Avulsion of the aortic valve commissure as a cause of acute aortic valve regurgitation is mostly due to trauma, infective endocarditis, or ascending aortic dissection. Nontraumatic avulsion of the aortic valve commissure is very rare. We reviewed the literature and analyzed potential risk factors of nontraumatic avulsion. CASE PRESENTATION An 80-year-old male with hypertension was ...

متن کاملAortic Regurgitation due to Commissural Dehiscence of the Aortic Valve
Commissural dehiscence of the aortic valve is a rare cause of aortic regurgitation. We report a 53-year-old male who had progressive aortic regurgitation and aortic root dilatation. A flap or intimal tear of the proximal aorta was absent with echocardiography and computed tomography. Transesophageal echocardiography revealed prolapse of the right and left coronary cusps with no intimal flap in ...
متن کاملAcute aortic valvular regurgitation secondary to avulsion of aortic valve commissure in a patient with pseudoxanthoma elasticum.
A 68-year-old woman developed acute pulmonary edema due to severe acute aortic valvular regurgitation. At the time of emergency surgery, it turned out to result from spontaneous avulsion of the aortic valve commissure. Later, the patient was diagnosed to have pseudoxanthoma elasticum based on typical skin lesions. Connective tissue abnormalities associated with pseudoxanthoma elasticum might ha...
