Abstract:
Cardiogenic pulmonary edema classically presents bilaterally and with a symmetric distribution. Occasionally, cardiogenic pulmonary edema can present unilaterally, which carries an independent risk for mortality, possibly due to the delayed diagnosis. The most common cardiogenic cause of unilateral pulmonary edema is acute mitral regurgitation, frequently described in the setting of acute coronary syndrome. Here we describe a case of unilateral pulmonary edema caused by acute mitral regurgitation outside the setting of acute coronary syndrome.
