A rare case report: tricuspid valve prolapse due to spontaneous chordae rupture in a congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries patient

Abstract Background Congenitally corrected transposition of great arteries (CCTGA) is caused by atrioventricular and ventriculoarterial discordance. Cases of CCTGA with spontaneous chordae rupture of tricuspid valve have not been reported before. Case presentation Here we diagnosed a 38-year-old man...

description Abstract Background Congenitally corrected transposition of great arteries (CCTGA) is caused by atrioventricular and ventriculoarterial discordance. Cases of CCTGA with spontaneous chordae rupture of tricuspid valve have not been reported before. Case presentation Here we diagnosed a 38-year-old man, who was found CCTGA 14 years ago, as spontaneous chordae rupture by real-time three dimentional transesophageal echocardiography (RT-3D-TEE). The present case is the first report to describe a CCTGA patient combine with spontaneous chordae rupture in tricuspid valve. After tricuspid valve replacement, the patient was uneventful after 6 years’ follow-up. Conclusion We reported a rare case with spontaneous chordae rupture of tricuspid valve in a CCTGA patient and explored its etiology here. RT-3D-TEE is an important supplement to 2-dimentional transthoracic echocardiography and can provide more accurate detections in tricuspid valve diseases in CCTGA.
