Multiple cardiac valvulopathy stenosis: About one case
Downloads
Summary:
We report the case of a 28 - year - old female patient with triple stenosis: aortic, mitral and tricuspid. The proximal lesion was the dominant and the patient was admitted with right heart failure. The doppler echocardiogram revealed a rheumatic origin of the disease and quantified the different stenosis and their repercussions. Trivalvic surgery remains associated with high mortality despite advances in surgical techniques and intensive care units
