ABSTRACT

The association of an ostium primum-type defect with a cleft anterior mitral valve is known in the medical literature as the partial form of an atrioventricular canal. We present a case report about a 20-year-old woman with minimal symptomatology that discovered her pathology on routine echocardiography. Today, surgical operation remains the gold standard in such pathologies, especially mandatory when there is important valvular regurgitation and left-to-right shunt. Currently living in the era of fast and good cosmetic outcomes, minimally invasive and endovascular approaches should be developed and more often practiced. This scientific presentation is the first step in showing our department steps in performing minimally invasive surgeries as a routine.

ABSTRACT

Since the discovery of penicillin, the incidence of tertiary syphilis dramatically has decreased. However, cases of cardiovascular complications of syphilis still are present. Ascending aortic aneurysms are some of the most devastating complications. Nonetheless, syphilitic aortitis (SA) can appear and should be suspected in patients with syphilis and aortic aneurysm. We report a case of a 57-year-old patient with a large ascending aortic aneurysm with cartilage and rib erosion. The purpose of this article is to discuss the particular surgical aspects of this unusual case.
