ABSTRACT
Resumen Objetivo: Reportar un caso de implante de cierre de ruptura del seno de Valsalva e implante de válvula aórtica transcateterismo. Material y métodos: Paciente femenina de 82 años, con diagnóstico de estenosis valvular aórtica severa asociada con ruptura del seno de Valsalva no coronariano a la aurícula derecha e hipertensión arterial pulmonar severa, en quien, por sus comorbilidades, se decidió efectuar cierre percutáneo de la ruptura del seno de Valsalva con dispositivo de Amplatzer y posterior implante de válvula aórtica por cateterismo. Resultados: Se realiza procedimiento percutáneo de implante del dispositivo de cierre Amplatzer VSD Occluder de 8 mm sellando la ruptura del seno de Valsalva no coronariano. En segundo tiempo se realiza procedimiento de Implante de válvula aórtica transcateterismo vía femoral derecha. Se corrobora su adecuada implantación mediante angiografía y ecocardiograma transesofágico. Se considera exitoso el procedimiento ya que se implantaron ambos dispositivos en forma rápida, adecuada y sin complicaciones. Conclusiones: Se reporta un caso de cierre de ruptura de seno coronario con dispositivo Amplatzer e implante de prótesis aórtica transcateterismo.
Abstract Objective: To report the case of an implant for the closure of a Valsalva sinus rupture and implantation of a transcatheter aortic valve. Material and methods: An 82 year-old female patient, with a diagnosis of severe aortic valve stenosis associated with a non-coronary rupture of the sinus of Valsalva, at the right atrium, as well as severe pulmonary arterial hypertension. Due to her comorbidities, it was decided to perform a percutaneous closure of the sinus of Valsalva rupture with an Amplatzer device, and a subsequent aortic valve implantation by catheterisation. Results: A percutaneous procedure was performed by implanting an 8 mmAmplatzer VSD Occluder device, sealing the non-coronary rupture of the sinus of Valsalva. In a second time, an aortic valve was implanted using transcatheterisation via the right femoral artery. It was checked that it was appropriately implanted using angiography and a transoesophageal echocardiogram. The procedure was considered successful, since both devices could be implanted rapidly, adequately, and with no complications. Conclusions: The case is reported of the closure of the sinus of Valsalva rupture with an Amplatzer device and the transcatheterisation implantation of an aortic valve.
