REZUMAT

Prolapsul de valvă mitrală (PVM) este destul de frecvent întâlnit la copil, fi ind deseori o descoperire întâmplătoare la un copil asimptomatic, dar şi la copii simptomatici, cu boli ale ţesutului conjunctiv. Autorii raportează cazul unei fetiţe de 11 ani, diagnosticată la vârsta de 6 ani cu insufi cienţă mitrală severă prin prolaps de valvă mitrală şi operată la vârsta de 7 ani, când s-a practicat înlocuirea valvei mitrale cu o proteză valvulară biologică. La 4 ani de la protezarea valvulară, fetiţa se prezintă în urgenţă pentru instalarea bruscă a dispneei cu ortopnee, hemoptiziei şi cianozei generalizate. Examenul clinic corelat cu ecocardiografi a au stabilit diagnosticul de edem pulmonar acut şi proteză biologică valvulară degenerată, cu stenoză mitrală severă. Evoluţia a fost favorabilă după înlocuirea în urgenţă a bioprotezei cu o proteză mecanică.

ABSTRACT

Mitral valve prolapse (MVP) is fairly common in children, often being randomly found in asymptomatic, as well as in symptomatic patients with conjunctive tissue diseases (CTD). The authors report the case of an 11-yearold girl, diagnosed at the age of 6 with MVP and severe mitral regurgitation (MR). She had surgery at the age of seven, when the mitral valve replacement with a biological valve prosthesis was performed. Four years later, the girl was admitted for sudden onset of dyspnoea with orthopnoea, haemoptysis and generalized cyanosis. The diagnosis of acute pulmonary oedema and degenerated biological valvular prosthesis correlated with severe mitral stenosis was evoked by means of clinical and echocardiographic examinations. The evolution was favourable after the replacement of the bioprosthesis with a mechanical prosthesis.
