ABSTRACT

Apesar de pouco frequente, a ruptura de músculo papilar é uma condição associada à regurgitação mitral importante, sendo causa grave de insuficiência cardíaca aguda, necessitando de diagnóstico e intervenção cirúrgica precoce. Neste relato, apresentamos um caso de paciente portador de febre reumática associado à endocardite infecciosa, que evoluiu com insuficiência mitral importante, secundária à ruptura do músculo papilar anterolateral.


Although its low frequency, the papillary muscle rupture is a condition associated with severe mitral regurgitation and cause of acute heart failure and need for urgent surgical intervention. We present a case of severe mitral regurgitation due to the anterolateral papillary muscle rupture secondary to rheumatic mitral valve disease and infectious endocarditis.
