“…A routine postoperative echocardiogram at 1 month showed a mass attached to a papillary muscle which, at reoperation, turned out to be the preserved chordae of AML that had become detached [62]. Prabhakar describes a patient with Hancock ® II bioprosthesis in which a strut impinged on the preserved posterior papillary muscle and chordae, resulting in early deterioration of the bioprosthesis [63].…”

Mitral valve replacement often involves disruption of the chordal apparatus with disturbance of the annulo-papillary continuity. This results in significant downgrading of ventricular function. Analyzes various reports to accurately assess the advantages of chordal preservation. This review briefly briefly reviews the surgical techniques. The advantages of chordal preservation are analyzed, with particular emphasis on the technical difficulties and potential complications involved.

A Case Report on Papillary Muscle Rupture Following Mitral Valve Replacement in the Setting of Previously Undiagnosed Amyloidosis

This case describes a patient who underwent mitral valve replacement (MVR) surgery with preservation of the subvalvular apparatus who suffered anterolateral papillary muscle rupture (PMR) postseparation from cardiopulmonary bypass. This patient had no history of coronary artery disease (CAD); subsequent pathology of the papillary muscle showed evidence of amyloid deposition. Although most PMRs are caused by ischemia from CAD, cardiac amyloidosis must be considered in the absence of CAD and worked up appropriately as cardiac involvement of amyloidosis, especially the amyloid light-chain (AL) subtype, is prognostic of increased mortality that can be mitigated with therapy.
