Summary

Shone's anomaly, a rare congenital heart condition, can present in adults undergoing non-cardiac surgery. This case highlights the importance of recognizing this complex cardiac anomaly in adult surgical patients.

Area of Science:

  • Cardiology
  • Anesthesiology
  • Medical Case Reports

Background:

  • Shone's anomaly is a rare congenital heart condition characterized by four obstructive cardiac lesions.
  • It is typically described in pediatric patients, with limited literature on adult perioperative presentations.

Observation:

  • An adult patient with undiagnosed, incomplete Shone's anomaly presented for non-cardiac surgery.
  • The anomaly included supravalvular mitral ring, mitral/subvalvular apparatus deformity, subvalvular aortic stenosis, and coarctation of the aorta.

Findings:

  • The case report details the anesthetic management of this adult patient with unrecognized Shone's anomaly.
  • It underscores the potential for incomplete forms of the anomaly to go undiagnosed into adulthood.

Implications:

  • Highlights the need for heightened awareness of Shone's anomaly in adult patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery.
  • Suggests that anesthesiologists should consider this rare condition in patients with complex cardiac histories or unexplained symptoms.
  • Emphasizes the importance of thorough preoperative assessment for potentially undiagnosed congenital heart disease.
