Résumé

Se comunica el caso de una mujer de 31 años quien había sido previamente sometida a reemplazo valvular aórtico, mitral y tricuspídeo en tres episodios quirúrgicos. Fue ingresada a nuestra sección de cardiologÍa con síntomas compatibles con insuficiencia cardiaca derecha. Se efectuó evaluación mediante ecocardiograma, sondeo cardíaco derecho/izquierdo, angioTAC cardíaco y cardio resonancia. Se diagnosticó una estenosis tricuspídea severa secundaria a disfunción de prótesis biológica. Debido a alto riesgo operatorio y riesgo de falla ventricular derecha post-operatorio, la paciente fue rechazada para reemplazo valvular quirúrgico. Se decidió efectuar reemplazo tricuspídeo procedimiento "valve in valve". Se logró efectuar de manera exitosa por abordeje venoso femoral, prótesis balón expansible. Se demostró corrección de la estenosis tricuspídea y la paciente evolucionó con remisión de los síntomas de falla cardíaca.


We report a 31-year-old woman who was previously subjected to aortic, mitral, and tricuspid valve replacement in three different surgical episodes. She was admitted to our cardiology section with acute right heart failure symptoms. She was studied by echocardiography, right/left heart catheterization, cardiac CT scan and cardiac magnetic resonance. A severe tricuspid stenosis due to biological prosthesis dysfunction was diagnosed. Due to high operative risk and risk of postoperative right ventricular failure, the patient was rejected for cardiovascular surgery. We decided on a percutaneous tricuspid "valve in valve replacement". The procedure was done successfully by venous femoral approach, with a balloon expandable prosthesis. Tricuspid stenosis was corrected and the patient evolved with remission of heart failure symptoms.

Résumé

Isolated cardiac involvement of COVID-19 is an infrequent presentation, and myocardial infarction is even less common. We report a 30-year-old man presenting with retrosternal pain of insidious onset whose intensity increases suddenly. On admission, the patient had tachycardia and an EKG showed a 1 mm ST-elevation and diffuse PQ segment depression. Troponin was 26.9 ng/ml (normal value [NV] < 0.03), inflammatory parameters were elevated, and SARS-CoV 2 PCR was positive. He was hospitalized with the diagnosis of myopericarditis secondary to SARS-CoV 2. He progressed favorably without pain during the hospital stay and with decreasing troponin values. A Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) was compatible with an infero-lateral transmural infarction. A coronary angiography showed a distal occlusion of the circumflex artery. Consequently, anticoagulation and double platelet anti-aggregation were started. The patient evolved favorably, with a decreasing troponin curve (last at discharge 0.49 ng/ml) and a control EKG with pathological Q in DIII and AvF, and symmetrically inverted T in DII, DIII, AvF, V4, V5, and V6.

Résumé

Background: Tako-tsubo Syndrome (TTS) is characterized by transient regional systolic dysfunction of the left ventricle (LV), mimicking myocardial infarction. It accounts for 0.9-1.2% of all acute coronary syndromes (ACS). Aim: To describe the incidence and characteristics of TTS within our population. Material and Methods: All patients diagnosed with ACS and TTS were selected from a clinical registry of all the coronary angiographies done in our hospital. Clinical features during initial presentation, hospital evolution and one year follow-up were analyzed. Results: The first case diagnosed in our hospital occurred in 2001. Since then, 4,433 coronary angiographies were done to patients with ACS until 2014 and 37 corresponded to TTS (0.83% incidence). The mean age of patients was 64 years, 73% were female, and 62% had hypertension. All patients had an identifiable trigger factor, abnormal EKG and elevated troponin. The coronary angiography did not show lesions in 97%. However, all had the characteristic extensive segmental-motility alteration with a mean ejection fraction of 44%. All patients were treated initially as an ACS. Seven patients had complications, namely acute cardiac failure in six and stroke in one. No patient died. At one year of follow-up, 100% showed normal segmental motility and ejection fraction, no patient had a new episode of TTS and all were alive. Conclusions: TTS is rare and the incidence found in this study is slightly lower than that reported elsewhere. TTS mimics ACS and it should be suspected by its clinical, electrocardiographic and enzymatic particularities. Coronary angiography helps to rule out other diagnosis. All patients normalize motility and ventricular function, which is the definitive differential feature respect to ACS.
