RESUMEN
Reportamos el caso de una mujer de 55 años, que completo terapia antibiótica por una periodontitis con buena respuesta clínica. Posteriormente, presentó fiebre y dolor lumbar, hospitalizándose para estudio. Destacaban parámetros inflamatorios elevados y hemocultivos positivos para Streptococcus Viridans. Estudio de imágenes confirmaron espondilodiscitis de L5-S1. Se efectuó un Ecocardiograma transesogáfico (ETE), que mostró una válvula mitral de aspecto tricúspide, con prolapso del velo posterior (P2-P3) e insuficiencia severa, más una endocarditis mural auricular izquierda por lesión de jet. Se efectuó cirugía cardíaca con reparación mitral. Los hallazgos intraoperatorios mostraron el aparato subvalvular y músculos papilares habituales. Por lo tanto, el aspecto de la válvula mitral fue interpretado como una hendidura profunda del velo posterior.
ABSTRACT
We report the case of a 55 year old woman, previously treated with antibiotics for periodontitis. She was admitted with fever and lumbar pain. An elevated C reactive protein (CRP) and positive blood cultures for Streptococcus Viridans were found and infectious spondylodiscitis of L5-S1 was confirmed. Transeso-phageal echocardiography (TEE) was performed. A tri-leaflet mitral valve and prolapse of posterior leaflet (P2-P3) were found and severe mitral regurgitation was present on doppler examination In addition, a left atrial mural vegetation (jet lesion) was found. At cardiac surgery mitral valve repair and resection of the mural vegetations were performed. The papillary muscles were normal, and this tri-leaflet aspect of the mitral valve was interpreted as a deep posterior cleft with symmetrical distribution of all remaining segments.
