Abstract

A 60-year-old male patient with blunt chest trauma was transferred to our facility because of unstable vital signs and pericardial effusion. These conditions occurred after orthopedic surgery to repair multiple left finger fractures at a local medical center. Trans-thoracic echocardiography showed severe tricuspid regurgitation and he underwent papillary muscle reimplantation and tricuspid annuloplasty open heart surgery for post-traumatic tricuspid regurgitation with anterior papillary muscle rupture. We report early surgical traumatic valve disease correction without complications.

Abstract

We report a rare case of tricuspid valve and pulmonary valve endocarditis associated with a double-chambered right ventricle in an adult female with pulmonary artery aneurysm and septic pulmonary embolism by Streptococcus mitis. She was treated with aggressive antibiotic therapy followed by debridement of the infective lesion of tricuspid valve, pulmonary valve replacement using xenograft and resection of obstructing muscular bundles in right ventricle.
