Ebstein's anomaly with rheumatic mitral valve disease: A rare case report

We consider mitral valve disease requiring surgery in a patient with dextrocardia and situs inversus totalis to be an exceptional finding. The transseptal approach for mitral valve surgery in dextrocardia represents a technical challenge owing to its anatomic particulars. We present the case of a 56-year-old female patient who had been diagnosed with situs inversus totalis in childhood and with chronic atrial fibrillation in adulthood and was under oral anticoagulant treatment. She was referred to our hospital for increasing dyspnea and palpitation. Transthoracic echocardiography detected severe mitral regurgitation associated with moderate tricuspid regurgitation, with normal left and right ventricular function. Contrast chest computed tomography (CT) and preoperative abdominal CT showed both dextrocardia and situs inversus totalis, with normal continuity of the inferior vena cava. Biatrial cannulation was performed with the surgeon standing on the right side of the patient, and mitral valve replacement using a transseptal approach was performed with the surgeon standing on the left side of the patient. In this case report, we emphasize the rarity of mitral valve disease in a patient with dextrocardia and the inherent potential difficulty that can appear in this particular anatomic condition.

History Of

Isolated congenital mitral ring is a very rare subtype of congenital mitral valve malformation, which accounts for about one-third of congenital cardiac anomalies associated with left ventricular inflow obstruction. A mitral ring may be easily missed unless the disease is suspected. The mitral valve repair should be considered in symptomatic patients with mitral stenosis. We report a rare case of a 43-year-old woman with an intramitral ring who experienced previous embolic stroke with left hemiplegia. However, stroke happened several years ago and it does not completely prove causality.

History Of

We report a case of a 63-year-old man without a history of atrial fibrillation or mitral valve disease who was admitted to our hospital. Echocardiography revealed a large left atrial mass attached to the atrial septum. We suspected the mass to be a myxoma, but it turned out to be a large thrombus after the surgery. Left atrial thrombus without mitral valve disease or atrial fibrillation is rare. Although the degree of urgency varies based on the case, early surgical resection is recommended for a large left atrial thrombus to prevent embolism.

Transcatheter Mitral Valve Replacement

The review presents current data transseptal transcatheter mitral valve replacement, which is becoming an alternative method of managing mitral valve disease. Despite the fact that the transapical transcatheter approach is technically simpler, the transseptal method is less invasive. It has confirmed effectiveness and is predicted to be the most promising. The review describes the relevance, indications, methodology for selecting the required endoprosthesis, stages of procedure, complications, and the postoperative follow-up of patients. The results of publications on transseptal transcatheter mitral valve replacement are analyzed. A case report is given.
