Laubry-Pezzi Syndrome in an Adult Male Patient and Its Surgical Correction: A Case Report and Literature Review

Abstract

This Laubry-Pezzi syndrome is rarely seen in patients with ventricular septal defect (VSD) combined with aortic regurgitation. A 20-year-old male patient presented to the Cardiothoracic and vascular surgery department with a large VSD with severe aortic regurgitation (AR). However, he was first symptomatic at 12 years of age and initially treated by medical management with the suggestion of surgical correction. Nevertheless, he was delayed getting surgical management due to his financial problem. This article reported on an adult patient with Laubry-Pezzi syndrome and his surgical correction and outcome. The association of congenital defects VSD and AR needs to be identified and corrected in early life for better outcomes.
