Right ventricular outflow obstruction caused by cocoon duct occluder used for closure of ruptured sinus of valsalva aneurysm

Hemolytic anemia and right ventricular outflow tract obstruction following device closure of ruptured sinus of Valsalva have seldom been reported in isolated case reports, and exact incidence is not known. A gentleman presented with severe delayed hemolytic anemia following the use of cocoon duct oc...

description Hemolytic anemia and right ventricular outflow tract obstruction following device closure of ruptured sinus of Valsalva have seldom been reported in isolated case reports, and exact incidence is not known. A gentleman presented with severe delayed hemolytic anemia following the use of cocoon duct occluder for ruptured sinus of Valsalva. Right ventricular outflow tract obstruction of unclear etiology was also reported on transthoracic echocardiography, necessitating retrieval of the device and surgical closure of the defect. Intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) showed right ventricular outflow obstruction by the cocoon device itself with a normal pulmonary valve. In this report, we emphasize that improper device selection for closure of ruptured sinus of Valsalva aneurysm, may lead to delayed leaks across the device, which can gradually progress causing hemolytic anemia and high gradient across the right ventricular outflow tract. Intraoperative TEE helped to delineate the cause of right ventricular outflow tract obstruction.
