ABSTRACT
Abstract

Background:

Isolated cleft mitral valve (ICMV) may occur alone or in association with other congenital heart lesions. The aim of this study was to describe the profile of cardiac lesions associated with ICMV and their potential impact on therapeutic management.

Methods:

We conducted a descriptive study with data retrieved from the Congenital Heart Disease (CHD) single-center registry of our institution, including patients with ICMV registered between December 2008 and November 2014.

Results:

Among 2177 patients retrieved from the CHD registry, 22 (1%) had ICMV. Median age at diagnosis was 5 years (6 days to 36 years). Nine patients (40.9%) had Down syndrome. Seventeen patients (77.3%) had associated lesions, including 11 (64.7%) with accessory chordae in the left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) with no obstruction, 15 (88.2%) had ventricular septal defect (VSD), three had secundum atrial septal defect, and four had patent ductus arteriosus. Thirteen patients (59.1%) required surgical repair. The decision to proceed with surgery was mainly based on the severity of the associated lesion in eight patients (61.5%) and on the severity of the mitral regurgitation in four patients (30.8%). In one patient, surgery was decided based on the severity of both the associated lesion and mitral regurgitation.

Conclusion:

Our study shows that ICMV is rare and strongly associated with Down syndrome. The most common associated cardiac abnormalities were VSD and accessory chordae in the LVOT. We conclude that cardiac lesions associated with ICMV are of major interest, since in this study patients with cardiac lesions were diagnosed earlier. The decision to operate on these patients must take into account the severity of both mitral regurgitation and associated cardiac lesions.
RESUMO
Resumo Fundamento A fissura isolada da valva mitral (FIVM) pode ocorrer isoladamente ou em associação com outras lesões cardíacas congênitas. O objetivo deste estudo foi descrever o perfil das lesões cardíacas associadas à FIVM e o potencial impacto dessas lesões na terapêutica.

Métodos:

Realizamos um estudo descritivo com dados obtidos do registro unicêntrico Congenital Heart Disease (CHD) de nossa instituição incluindo pacientes com FIVM registrados entre dezembro de 2008 e novembro de 2014.

Resultados:

Entre 2177 pacientes identificados no registro CHD, 22 (1%) apresentavam FIVM. A mediana de idade ao diagnóstico foi de 5 anos (6 dias a 36 anos). Nove pacientes (40,9%) apresentavam síndrome de Down. Dezessete pacientes (77,3%) apresentavam lesões associadas, incluindo 11 (64,7%) com cordoalha acessória na via de saída do ventrículo esquerdo (VSVE) sem obstrução, 15 (88,2%) com comunicação interventricular (CIV), três com comunicação interatrial do tipo ostium secundum e quatro com persistência do canal arterial. Treze pacientes (59,1%) necessitaram reparo cirúrgico. A decisão de prosseguir com a cirurgia foi baseada principalmente na gravidade da lesão associada em oito pacientes (61,5%) e na gravidade da regurgitação mitral em quatro pacientes (30,8%). Em um paciente, a decisão por cirurgia foi baseada na gravidade tanto da lesão associada quanto da regurgitação mitral.

Conclusão:

Nosso estudo mostra que a FIVM é rara e está fortemente associada à síndrome de Down. As anormalidades cardíacas associadas mais comuns foram a CIV e cordoalha acessória na VSVE. Concluímos que as lesões cardíacas associadas à FIVM são de grande interesse, já que neste estudo, pacientes com lesões associadas foram diagnosticados mais precocemente. A decisão cirúrgica deve levar em conta a gravidade tanto da regurgitação mitral quanto das lesões cardíacas associadas.
