Hypoplasia or Absence of Posterior Leaflet: A Rare Congenital Anomaly of The Mitral Valve in Adulthood – Case Series

Abstract: We present a case series of two adult patients with almost complete absence of the posterior mitral valve leaflet and who are asymptomatic or mildly symptomatic, with two different degrees of mitral regurgitation.

“…A few cases have been described in asymptomatic adults with hypoplasia of PMVL. One is a 35‐year‐old man with frequent premature ventricular contractions that had noncompaction LV and bicuspid aortic valve with severe hypoplastic PMVL and severe MR. Another case was an asymptomatic 21‐year‐old man with systolic murmur that in his echocardiography hypoplasia of PMVL was showed with mild MR 9 . In this patient, association of these rare conditions was very grateful.…”

“…There have been described cases of ostium primum atrial septal defect associated with unicuspid mitral valve because of its embryological origin [7], although there are very few cases associated with ostium secundum atrial septal defect [3]. Aplasia of the posterior leaflet of the mitral valve is associated with severe mitral regurgitation and it is usually incompatible with life without early surgical intervention [8].…”

“…1 Hypoplazie zadního mitrálního cípu se v dětství typicky prezentuje symptomatickou mitrální regurgitací (MR). 2 V dospělosti jsou tyto nálezy vzácné, většinou asymptomatické, v literatuře bylo doposud popsáno 21 kazuistik. 3 V našem článku popisujeme kazuistiky dvou pacientů s echokardiografi ckým nálezem hypoplazie zadního mitrálního cípu.…”

“…Magnetická rezonance srdce doplněná v rámci nocen. 8 Nejčastěji se tato anomálie prezentuje již v dětství symptomatickou MR. 2 Aplazie mitrálního cípu je obvykle neslučitelná se životem a vede k úmrtí v intrauterinním či v časném kojeneckém věku. 1 Nicméně na základě dostupné literatury se zdá, že by prevalence hypoplazie zadního mitrálního cípu mohla být u dospělých, dosud asymptomatických pacientů vyšší.…”
