Left ventricular outflow tract obstruction after Ebstein tricuspid valve surgery: a case report
1Department of Cardiac Surgery, Affiliated Hospital of Guizhou Medical University, Guiyang, Guizhou, China.
Introduction And Importance:
Left ventricular outflow tract obstruction (LVOTO) is a rare complication after surgery for Ebstein's anomaly. Early detection of this complication is crucial.
Case Report:
We report a case of an elderly woman with Ebstein's anomaly who developed LVOTO after cone reconstruction. She was discovered in time and underwent tricuspid valve replacement, saving her life.
Clinical Discussion:
This rare complication of cone-plasty has taught us lessons. Early diagnosis and clinical monitoring of ultrasound during the clinical process and reduction of multiple injuries during surgery can reduce the chance of accidents.
Conclusion:
LVOTO after conical surgery for Ebstein's malformation is rare and fatal and needs to be detected and corrected promptly.
