INTRODUCTION: Mitral valve abnormalities in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) are becoming increasingly well defined, and their role in intra-ventricular obstruction is well defined. The aim of this study was to evaluate mitral valve abnormalities in patients with HCM. PATIENTS AND METHODS: We conducted a descriptive cross-sectional study from May 1 to July 1, 2022 in the Cardiology Department of Aristide Le Dantec Hospital. All patients with HCM aged at least 18 years old were included. The parameters studied concerned mainly the mitral valvular apparatus (papillary muscles abnormalities, leaflet length, mitral insufficiency). RESULTS: A total of 10 patients were included. Mean age was 58.3. On Doppler echocardiography, mean interventricular septal thickness was 20.6 mm. The mean maximum intra-ventricular gradient was 21.06 mmHg. Two patients had significant intraventricular obstruction. The mean length of the anterior mitral valve leaflet was 28.7 ± 3.55 mm, with extremes of 22 and 33 mm. The posterior mitral leaflet averaged 14.8 ± 3.16 mm. Nine (9) out of 10 patients had an elongated anterior valve leaflet. Elongation of the posterior leaflet was noted in 6 patients. With regard to papillary muscle position, 6 patients had an anterolateral ascending pillary muscle. These patients had a mean intra-ventricular gradient of 25 mmHg, compared with 16.5 mmHg in the others cases. We found no direct insertion on the mitral valve. Mitral insufficiency was noted in 9 patients, including 5 with mild insufficiency and 4 with moderate one. CONCLUSION: Mitral valve abnormalities in HCM appear to be frequent. They should be analyzed for a better diagnostic and therapeutic approach.
导读:肥厚性心肌病(HCM)的二尖瓣异常越来越明确,其在室内梗阻中的作用也越来越明确。本研究的目的是评估HCM患者的二尖瓣异常。患者和方法:我们于2022年5月1日至7月1日在Aristide Le Dantec医院心内科进行了一项描述性横断面研究。所有年龄在18岁以上的HCM患者均被纳入研究。研究的参数主要涉及二尖瓣器官(乳头肌异常、小叶长度、二尖瓣功能不全)。结果:共纳入10例患者。平均年龄58.3岁。在多普勒超声心动图上,平均室间隔厚度为20.6 mm。平均最大心室内梯度为21.06 mmHg。2例患者有明显的脑室梗阻。二尖瓣前叶平均长度为28.7±3.55 mm,极值为22和33 mm。二尖瓣后小叶平均14.8±3.16 mm。10例患者中有9例瓣膜前叶拉长。6例患者后侧小叶伸长。6例患者乳头肌位置为前外侧升柱肌。这些患者的平均心室内梯度为25mmhg,而其他病例为16.5 mmHg。我们在二尖瓣上没有发现直接插入物。二尖瓣功能不全9例,其中轻度不全5例,中度不全4例。结论:HCM患者二尖瓣异常较为常见。应该对其进行分析,以便更好地进行诊断和治疗。

Coronary ostial stenosis after surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) is a rare but potentially fatal complication. Surgeons must have a high level of vigilance regarding the presentation of acute myocardial ischemia, arrhythmia, and heart failure after AVR. According to most reports, this event can be time-dependent divided into two groups; early acute phase that mostly happens intraoperative during weaning of CPB or in early ICU stay, and late presentation usually appears 1 - 6 months post surgery. Here, we describe an unusual subacute presentation of right coronary ostial stenosis 12 days after SAVR, which was treated successfully with redo beating heart coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).
