DISCUSSION
In the present patient, the hemodynamic determination of pressure gradients across the left and right ventricular outow tracts and the mitral valve localized 3 sites of obstruction within the heart (Table1). Pulmonic valvular stenosis was clearly dem­onstrated by the pullback pressure recording across the right ventricular outow tract, and by a right ventricular angiocardiogram. Mitral and subaortic stenosis were also demonstrated by catheter pullback. The decline in systemic arterial pulse pressure following a premature ventricular contraction suggested that functional rather than xed orice obstruction to left ventricular outow existed at the subval­vular level.

Figure 2 Diagrammatic representation of the cardiac lesions. The markedly thick­ened mitral leaets insert almost directly into the single, large papillary muscle at the apex of the left ventricle. Obstruction to left ventricular ejection is caused by restriction of posterior motion of the leaets which prevents their retraction from the outow tract during systole, and contact between the mitral leaets and hyper­trophied muscular interventricular septum. Mitral regurgitation results from restricted leaet motion which prevents occlusion of the mitral orice.
Angiocardiography greatly facilitated the more precise assessment of the lesions responsible for obstruction at both the subaortic and mitral valve levels. Severe deformity of the mitral valve as well as marked thickening of its leaets was observed in all phases of the cardiac cycle. The diastolic position of the mitral leaf­lets can be seen in lateral views of the opacied left ventricle (Figure 3, F); there was restriction of forward motion of the leaets, leading to a funnel shape. During systole, in addition to the demonstration of mitral regurgitation, there was marked anterior concavity of the anterior mitral leaet, and the leading edges of both leaf­lets were seen to be projecting into the left ventricular outow tract well below the aortic valve (Figure 3, D). It was apparent that the leading edge of the anterior mitral leaet formed the posterior component of the obstruction to the left ventricular ejec­tion. Amarkedly thickened interventricular septum formed the anterior and lat­eral components of the obstruction. Normally, during systole, the anterior mitral

Figure 3 Left ventricular angiocardiograms and diagrams of the contracted ven­tricle, in the frontal projection after ejection (A and B), the hypertrophied muscu­lar interventricular septum (S) can be seen bulging into the lateral aspect of the left ventricular outow tract. The outow tract obstruction is visible as a V-shaped radiolucent line, formed by the leading edges of the mitral leaets (ML) as they come in contact with the area of the septal hypertrophy, about 2cm. below the opened aortic valve (A). The single large papillary muscle (PAP. M ) is seen as a radiolucent defect at the apex of the left ventricle. In diastole (C), the septal hyper­trophy results in a deformity along the inferior surface of the outow tract. The papillary muscle cannot be delineated, since it is surrounded by a large pool of con­trast material. In the lateral projection, after ventricular contraction (D and E) the hypertrophied interventricular septum (S) protrudes into the anterior portion of the outow tract. The thickened anterior mitral leaet (AML) and posterior mitral leaet (PML) are held forward in the outow tract, several centimeters below the aortic valve, forming the posterior component of the subaortic obstruction. Mitral regurgitation (MR) is also demonstrated. There is superimposition of the body and apex of the left ventricle so that the papillary muscle is obscured. In diastole in the lateral projection (F), septal hypertrophy is visible along the anterior aspect of the left ventricular outow tract, immediately below the aortic valve, and the indenta­tion along the inferior aspect of the ventricle is also caused by hypertrophy of the muscular septum. The interface between the opacied left ventricular blood and less-opacifìed left atrial blood is formed by the mitral leaets (arrows) and shows their restricted opening and a funnel deformity.

leaet swings posteriorly out of the outow portion of the ventricle and meets the posterior mitral leaet to occlude the mitral orice so that, in spite of contraction of the muscular interventricular septum, the outow tract is widened.
7
In the fron­tal projection, during systole (Figure 3, A), contact between the leading edge of the deformed mitral valve and the anterior bulge of the hypertrophied interventricular septum was visible as a V-shaped, thick, radiolucent line several centimeters below the aortic valve. This location corresponds to the point of pressure change within the ventricle. The normal left ventricular outow tract shows no such radiolucent defect in systole, since the mitral valve moves posteriorly away from the septum.
7
Although chordae tendineae may not be visualized on a normal left ventricular angiogram, ordinarily two discrete papillary muscles are noted in both the frontal and lateral projections. The anterior muscle may be seen along the anterosuperior sur­face and the posterior muscle along the posteroinferior surface of the ventricle.
7
Both lling defects were not present in this patient. Rather, only a single, large lling defect was seen in an unusual position, occupying the cardiac apex (Figures 2 and 3, A).
It was of particular interest that the dynamics and the appearance of the left ven­tricular outow obstruction in this patient resembled those shown to exist in idio­pathic hypertrophic subaortic stenosis (IHSS). In the latter condition, the pressure gradient within the body of the left ventricle is thought by some authors to be caused by the abnormal systolic position of the leading edge of the mitral valve leaets as it contacts the hypertrophied interventricular septum.
7
In IHSS, it is postulated that the abnormal position of these leaets, which causes mitral regurgitation and sub­aortic obstruction, probably results from traction on the chordae tendineae due to dislocation of the left ventricular papillary muscles by the hypertrophied septum.
In this patient, the parachute deformity of the mitral valve (with shortening and fusion of the chordae tendineae as well as brosis of the mitral valve) prevents the normal systolic excursion of the mitral leaets and is responsible for the subaortic stenosis and mitral regurgitation. For this reason, the diagnosis of parachute defor­mity of the mitral valve should be entertained whenever the angiocardiographic association of a single large papillary muscle at the apex coexists with abnormal systolic position of the mitral valve.

Case 108 Chronic Intravascular Hemolysis (Renal Hemosiderosis) After Incomplete Prosthetic Closure of a Ventricular Septal Defect and Noncalcific Aortic Regurgitation
Thomas J. Liddy, MD, and William C. Roberts, MD
Pathologic Anatomy Branch, National Cancer Institute and Section of Pathology, National Heart and Lung Institute, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Maryland 20014
Clinical and pathologic features of the case of an 11-year-old boy who underwent operative repair of tetralogy of Fallot nine months before death are described. Aortic regurgitation was produced inadvertently at operation during an unsuccessful patch closure of the ventricular septal defect. Postoperatively, the child developed severe cardiac failure and mild anemia. During a second operation seven days before death, aortic blood, which regurgitated through the aortic valve, was observed to contact the nonendothelialized ventricular septal patch, which only partially closed the septal defect. Erythrocytes were traumatized by the jet of blood contacting the nonendothelialized patch, liberating free hemoglobin, which was ltered by glomeruli and reabsorbed by renal tubules (renal hemosiderosis). Intravascular hemolysis after patch closure of ventricular septal defect has not been described previously.

The hemolysis in these patients has been attrib­uted to contact of erythrocytes regurgitated from the left ventricle at high velocity and pressure against the prosthetic atrial septal patch. A review of the literature disclosed that intravascular hemolysis after operative closure of ventricular sep­tal defect with prosthetic material has not been described. However, intravascular hemolysis did develop in a patient studied by us, in whom aortic valvular regurgita­tion was produced inadvertently while a ventricular septal defect was being closed incompletely. Clinical and autopsy ndings in this patient are described.
REPORT OF A CASE
An 11-year-old boy had undergone repair of tetralogy of Fallot eight months before admission to the National Heart Institute. The ventricular septal defect allegedly had been closed by an Ivalon patch and the valvular and infundibular pulmonic stenosis was thought to be alleviated. During closure of the septal defect, a suture had caught an aortic valvular cusp and aortic regurgitation occurred. Severe right­sided congestive failure, evident immediately after operation, became progressively

catheterization disclosed a left-to-right shunt (1.5 to 1) at the ventricular level and ele­vated right ventricular (60/20mm. Hg) and right atrial pressures (mean, 17; a wave, 23; v wave, 23mm. Hg). The femoral arterial pressure was 110/48mm. Hg. At reopera­tion (seven days before death), two perforations, each about 0.5cm. in diameter, were found in the noncoronary aortic valvular cusp. The aortic valvular cusps were brotic, smooth, and free of calcic deposits; the two perforations, which were responsible for the severe aortic regurgitation, were closed by sutures. It was apparent that the regurgitant stream was in direct line with the ventricular septal patch, which was not covered by endothelium. The residual shunt resulted from partial detachment of the ventricular septal patch; the detached portion was reapproximated to the margin of the defect by sutures. Postoperatively, the patient had prolonged periods of hypoten­sion, grand mal seizures, and hyperbilirubinemia (17 mg. per 100 ml.), and died.

https://t.me/medicina_free
At autopsy, the ventricular septal defect and the aortic valvular perforations were well closed (Figure 1). The erythroid elements in the bone marrow were hyperplastic and large deposits of iron were present in the cytoplasm of the proximal convoluted tubules of the kidney (Figure 2). No stainable iron was present in the liver or spleen.
COMMENTS
The intravascular hemolysis almost certainly resulted from damage to erythrocytes which contacted the nonendothelialized ventricular septal patch. Blood which regur­gitated from the aorta through the perforated aortic valvular cusp and ejected from the left ventricle through the residual ventricular septal defect had direct contact with the prosthetic patch. Although few clinical tests for hemolysis were performed, there is unequivocal anatomic evidence, i.e., renal hemosiderosis, that chronic intravascular hemolysis had occurred. Chronic intravascular hemolysis is the only condition which causes severe renal hemosiderosis without associated deposits of iron in the liver or

Prolonged periods of intra­vascular hemolysis are necessary before stainable iron can be detected in the cells of the proximal convoluted tubules. The amount of intravascular hemolysis required to produce severe renal hemosiderosis is not precisely known, but the extracorpuscular hemoglobin, at least initially, must exceed 100 to 140 mg. per 100 ml. plasma for hemo­globin to lter through renal glomeruli. depletes the serum haptoglobin, and this threshold falls accordingly.

The hemolysis in the patient described was well compensated, since he was only mildly anemic. The pronounced erythroid hyperplasia of the bone marrow in the presence of normal arte­rial oxygen saturation, however, indicates an active stimulus to erythropoiesis.

Case 122 Congenital Atresia of the Left Main Coronary Artery
Nicholas J. Fortuin, MD,* and William C. Roberts, MD
Bethesda, Maryland
Clinical and pathologic features are described in a sixty-one year old man with long-standing clinical manifestations of ischemic heart disease. In addition to severe coronary atherosclerosis, congenital atresia of the left main coronary artery was present. Sudden death probably resulted from acute narrowing of the conus artery, the major collateral supplying the left ventricle.
The ndings of angina pectoris, left bundle branch block, atrial brillation, systemic hypertension, hyperglycemia and hypercholesterolemia in an adult strongly sug­gest ischemic heart disease secondary to coronary atherosclerosis. Apatient recently studied with these features died suddenly and at necropsy was found to have a con­genitally atretic left main coronary artery in addition to extensive coronary athero­sclerosis. Adescription of the coronary anomaly found in him and a discussion of its meaning and signicance are presented.
CASE REPORT
A sixty year old physician (J.M.) died suddenly at home on March8, 1969. He had been in good health until 1949 (age forty) when atrial brillation appeared. He was given digitalis for control of ventricular rate, and he continued to be asymptomatic until 1958 (age forty-nine) when he noted the onset of exertional, substernal chest pain which was typical of angina pectoris. Evaluation at this time disclosed moder­ate obesity and mild hypertension (blood pressure 150/100mm Hg). An electrocar­diogram (Figure 1) showed atrial brillation and nonspecic ST-T wave changes. Achest roentgenogram (Figure2) showed the heart to be at the upper limits of nor­mal in size. During the next ten years the angina did not worsen and occurred only with heavy exertion. Routine yearly examinations documented the persistence of mild systemic hypertension, but no changes in chest roentgenogram or electrocar­diogram were noted. When seen on March12, 1968, (one year before death) the patient had no new complaints. Blood pressure was 160/90mm Hg. The heart was enlarged by palpation, and a grade 2/6 mid-systolic ejection murmur heard maximally at the base but well transmitted to neck and apex was described for the rst time. An elec­trocardiogram (Figure1) showed atrial brillation and left bundle branch block. On chest roentgenogram (Figure2) the heart was enlarged. The two-hour postprandial blood glucose level was 258 mg per cent, serum cholesterol 317 mg per cent and serum uric acid 8.6 mg per cent. In January1969 the patient consulted a physician complaining of a clear-cut change in the pattern of his angina. Chest pain occurred more frequently, with less provocation, occasionally after heavy meals and at rest.
