ABSTRACT

Una mujer de 54 años sometida a una reparación mitral se presenta 2 meses después con anemia hemolítica. El mecanismo de ésta correspondió a dehiscencia de la cuadrantectomía y a falta de endotelización de un sector del anillo, que se evidenció mediante ecografía transesofágica y se confirmó por hallazgos operatorios. Se resecó el anillo mitral y se implantó una prótesis de Saint Jude, y no hubo recurrencia de la hemólisis. Se incluye una discusión con revisión de la literatura.


A 54 year old woman was subjected to a mitral valve repair of a mixomatous degenerative valve with severe mitral insufficiency. Quadrantectomy, mitral chords transfer from P2 to a A2 and implantation of a rigid Edwards 28 ring were performed. Two months later the patient was diagnosed with severe hemolytic anemia. Trans esophageal echocardiography revealed severe mitral insufficiency and at surgery a dehiscence at the base of the qudrantectomy in addition to a non endothelysed sector of the mitral ring were found. A Saint-Jude mitral prosthesis was inserted. At follow up, no recurrence of hemolysis occurred.
