Left ventricular Saccular Aneurysm After Myocardial Infarction With Severe Mitral Regurgitation

Abstract

In this paper, we describe the case of a 53-year-old diabetic man who was admitted to our cardiology department for severe mitral valve regurgitation. He had undergone percutaneous coronary angioplasty with stenting of the mid segments of the left anterior descending artery (LAD) for myocardial infarction one year prior. On the ECG, there were abnormal Q waves in the inferiolateral leads and sinus rhythm at 90 beats per minute. A sacular aneurysm of the inferio-lateral left ventricular wall, significant mitral valve regurgitation, and fibrosis were all seen on transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiography, but no thrombus reported. A mildly decreased ejection fraction (EF) of 50% was seen along with LV hypertrophy and dilation. The ultrasound results and observable diffuse coronary stenosis at the ending point of the LAD stent application were verified by coronary angiography. Other coronary arteries did not show any noticeable stenosis. The decision to do surgery was made. The patient had mechanical mitral valve replacement, coronary artery bypass grafting of the left anterior descending (LAD) with the left internal mammary artery (LIMA), and ventricular aneurysm repair. In the early stages of his recovery in the intensive care unit after the surgery, he required an intra aortic balloon pump. A negligible MR and an improvement in LVEF to 55% were seen on the postoperative echocardiographic control.
