Fig. 3.37 Diagram representing the right-sided ventricular septum

crista supraventricularis
G. Thiene and S. Rizzo
(d) With the fall of pulmonary arterial pressure after birth,
the pulmonary artery wall loses progressively elastic
lamellar units becoming attened like a vein, as to be
called in the past “arteria venosa.” To all effects, during
fetal life with the patency of the ductus arteriosus, the
pulmonary artery behaves like a second aorta.
Echo Transthoracic View
Tomographic cross sections of transthoracic two- dimensional
echo include long- and short-axis parasternal views and fourto ve-chamber apical views (Figs.3.38 and 3.39). They are
an excellent, noninvasive scan of cardiac valves.
The long-axis parasternal view beautifully explores both
inow and outow of the left ventricle, including aortic and
mitral valves with the entire apparatus (leaets, chordae tendineae, and papillary muscles). In addition, the pulmonary
infundibulum is well visible (Fig.3.40).
The short-axis parasternal tomographic sections may scan
the heart from apex to base including cross sections of both
ventricles and the apparatus of both atrioventricular valves
(Figs.3.41 and 3.42). The parasternal short axis at the base
of the heart beautifully discloses the aortic root, the pulmonary artery, and its bifurcation (Fig.3.43).
The apical four-chamber view in longitudinal tomographic
section allows to see both ventricles and atria, with the corresponding atrioventricular valves (Figs.3.44 and 3.45).

By slightly enhancing the transducer, a ve-chamber view
may be obtained, namely, the four cardiac chambers plus the
left ventricular outow tract up to the ascending aorta
Moreover, from the apical longitudinal approach, a twochamber view (left atrium, mitral valve, left ventricle) may
be achieved (Fig.3.47).

Conduction System
The atrioventricular (AV) conduction system, discovered by
Tawara (Fig.3.48), is in close proximity to the cardiac valves.
The AV node is located inside the triangle of Koch, consisting of the following sides: the tendon of Todaro (within
the crista dividens), the brous annulus of the septal tricuspid valve leaet, and the ostium of the coronary sinus
(Fig.3.49).
The AV node is a right-sided structure of the atrial septum
which lies just above the septal leaet of the tricuspid valve
(Fig.3.50).
The His bundle penetrates the central brous body
(Fig.3.51) and runs underneath the membranous septum, on
the crest of the ventricular septum, just in front of the anteroseptal commissure of the tricuspid valve (Fig.3.52); then, it
bifurcates upon the crest of the ventricular septum, dividing
into right and left branches (Fig.3.52).
The sinoatrial node is located at the junction of the superior vena cava and right atrium, quite far from the AV valves
and the aortic root.
The pulmonary and mitral valves do not have a relation
with the AV conduction system in the normal heart.

Rheumatic Valve Disease
Rheumatic valve disease is still the leading cause of aortic
valve disease in developing countries, while it is declining in
the Western world in favor of degenerative forms (Fig.4.1).
The acute rheumatic valvulitis consists of noninfective
small vegetations (verrucae) arising on the contact border of
the cusps. The acute inammation consists of a granulomatous phenomenon including “owl” cells (Aschoff) and “spider cells” (Aničkov), without perforation or fraying of the
leaets. The organization of such vegetations leads to cusp
brous thickening and retraction (Fig.4.2) with commissural
fusion (Fig. 4.3), a feature which is considered pathognomonic of the disease.
In the chronic stage, presence of vascularization at histology is the marker of previous rheumatic valvulitis (Fig.4.2),
since normal valves are not vascularized. Calcication of the
cusps is another consequence of rheumatic valve disease
(Fig.4.4).
As far as the pathophysiologic consequence, aortic stenosis occurs when commissural fusion predominates (Fig.4.3),
whereas incompetence originates when cusp retraction prevails (Fig.4.2).
The combination of the two (commissural fusion and
cusp retraction) accounts for aortic steno-incompetence.
Chronic regurgitation leads to traumatic reaction of the
subaortic septal endocardium with swallow nest formation,
which is considered a pathognomonic gross hallmark of
rheumatic aortic valve incompetence.
Nowadays, valve disease due to primary dystrophic calcication is by far the main cause of aortic stenosis (Fig.4.4).

Rheumatic valve disease
Degenerative valve disease
Emerging valve disease
Fig. 4.1 The diagram shows the decline of rheumatic valve pathology
and the increase of degenerative one, as current trend of aortic valve
disease in the developed countries
It is easily distinguishable from rheumatic stenosis, because
of coarse intrinsic calcic deposits in the absence commissural fusion. The calcium deposits may be so exuberant to
appear as nodular cauliower-like excrescences (Figs. 4.5
and 4.6).
Calcication may involve the membranous septum and
the His bundle bifurcation, with onset of AV block.
The dystrophic calcic phenomenon of the aortic valve is
frequently associated with calcication of the mitral ring
(Fig.4.5) and atherosclerotic disease of the aorta (Fig.4.6).
Aortic valve stenosis implies systolic overload with ventricular hypertrophy (Fig. 4.7) and myocardial blood ow
discrepancy, even in the absence of obstructive coronary
artery disease. It is the cause of subendocardial myocardial
ischemia, with myocytolysis and brosis (Fig.4.8).
The term atherosclerotic aortic stenosis was used in the
past; however, atheromasia of the aortic cusps is rare.
Another frequent cause of calcic aortic stenosis is the
bicuspid aortic valve, a congenital defect silent until adult-
