Acute Pulmonary Edema due to Rupture of Mitral Valve ́s Posteromedial Papillary Muscle in a young girl
نویسنده
چکیده
We report a 13-year-old girl with acute pulmonary edema due to severe acute Mitral regurgitation because of rupture of Mitral valve ́s posteromedial papillary muscle. She had normal mitral valve with necrotic posteromedial papillary muscle, classic aneurysms in left coronary artery, neutrophilic infiltration in the wall of medium-sized vessel of kidney and positive perinuclear antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (PANCA) a diagnosis of polyarteritis nodosa. She treated successfully with mitral valve replacement. (Rawal Med J 2008;33:112-114).

متن کاملA case of mitral papillary muscle rupture due to blunt chest trauma.
Mitral regurgitation due to papillary muscle rupture after blunt chest trauma is uncommon. Sudden onset severe mitral regurgitation may lead to death due to heart failure if surgical repair is delayed. A previously healthy 12-year-old girl underwent splenectomy and chest tube insertion for pneumothorax after a traffic accident in a vehicle 15 days before. She was discharged from the hospital af...

BACKGROUND Rupture of papillary muscle generally happens during acute myocardial infarction and is the cause of acute mitral regurgitation, pulmonary oedema, so it should be promptly recognized and managed. CASE REPORT A patient, 52 year-old, was admitted to the Thoracic Department with fever, general weakness, dyspnea and cough as a case of suspected pneumonia. Two days before the admission ...
