Ukmppd Struktural Heart Disease
NON-RHEUMATIK
Until the mid-20th century the predominant
etiology of acquired valvular heart disease
world wide was rheumatic
In developed countries incidence of rheumatic
disease declined after the second half of the 20th
century as a result of improvements in living and
health care conditions
Subvalvular apparatus
(papillary muscles with
their supporting left
ventricular walls and
chordae tendineae)
Mitral annulus
Mitral valve leaflets
ISCHEMIC
MITRAL REGURGITATION
2 different mechanisms :
1. Acute or subacute ischemic MR
• Papillary muscle rupture
• Papillary muscle infarction (lack of
contractility)
2. Chronic ischemic MR
• Alteration in LV size, shape, pappilary
muscle gemometry, annular dilatation,
depressed LV systolic function
Precordial palpation
• The second heart sound (S2) aortic (A2) and pulmonic (P2) valve closure
• This sound (S2) normally splits into audibly distinct aortic (A2) and pulmonic
(P2) components during inspiration, when the augmented inflow into the
right ventricle and thus delays closure of the pulmonic valve
• A2 usually louder than P2, in pulmonary hypertension P2 is louder
