A case of acute aortic insufficiency due to severe rheumatoid arthritis, showing progression in two weeks
1.
© Cardiovascular Diagnosis
and Therapy. All rights reserved. Cardiovasc Diagn Ther 2014;4(3):267-269www.thecdt.org Introduction Rheumatoid arthritis is well known as an important risk factor for heart valve disease, but we experienced a rare case of aortic insufficiency that was detected in the very acute phase. Case report A 74-year-old woman with a history of myocardial infarction and severe rheumatoid arthritis on immunosuppressants (5 mg prednisolone, 100 mg mizoribine, and 80 mg tocilizumab) was referred to our hospital because of nausea and tooth pain. Her blood test, electrocardiogram, and chest radiogram showed no abnormalities. The echocardiogram showed an akinetic left ventricular anterior wall, which was thought to be the result of an old myocardial infarction, and normally functioning valves. Two weeks after the first assessment, she was referred to our hospital again because of tooth pain and dyspnea. Her blood test results showed a white blood cell count of 4,600/m3 , C-reactive protein level of 0.02 mg/dL, procalcitonin level of <0.05 ng/mL, and brain natriuretic peptide level of 294 pg/mL. Her chest radiograph showed congestive heart failure, and the echocardiogram showed severe aortic insufficiency, which was not identified in the previous examination (Figures 1,2). She was diagnosed with congestive heart failure caused by acute aortic insufficiency and was put on diuretics and inotropic agents. She continued therapy with 5 mg prednisolone and 100 mg mizoribine and discontinued therapy with the monoclonal antibody agent 80 mg tocilizumab, which causes poor wound healing. Ten days after the therapy, the patient underwent an aortic valve replacement with a bioprosthetic valve. All three aortic valve leaflets were severely shrunken and thickened, with no coaptation (Figure 3). There was no evidence of infective endocarditis in the aortic valve leaflets, such as perforation, avulsion, or vegetation. On pathological examination of the valve leaflets, fibrosis and inflammatory changes with infiltration of inflammatory cells were observed (Figure 4). There were no specific changes in the pathology of the aortic wall other than atherosclerosis, and we did not find any granulomatous changes (1,2). She was discharged on postoperative day 16 without any complications. Case Report A case of acute aortic insufficiency due to severe rheumatoid arthritis, showing progression in two weeks Masami Shingaki, Yutaka Kobayashi, Haruo Suzuki Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, Uji Tokushukai Medical Center, Uji City, Kyoto, Japan Correspondence to: Masami Shingaki, MD. 86 Ogura-cho Kasugamori, Uji City, Kyoto Prefecture 611-0042, Japan. Email: singaky@hotmail.com. Abstract: A 74-year-old woman with a history of myocardial infarction and severe rheumatoid arthritis on immunosuppressants was referred to our hospital because of nausea and tooth pain, but no abnormalities were detected on physical or laboratory examination. Two weeks after the first assessment, she was referred to our hospital again because of tooth pain and dyspnea. Her echocardiogram showed severe aortic regurgitation, which was not detected at the assessment 2 weeks previously. After the patient’s congestive heart failure showed improvement, she underwent aortic valve replacement; the aortic valve leaflets were severely shrunken and thickened, without any evidence of endocarditis. Pathological examination of the leaflets showed infiltration of inflammatory cells into the valve leaflets. Therefore, rheumatoid arthritis needs to be considered as an important risk factor for acute valvular disease.

Cardiovasc Diagn Ther 2014;4(3):267-269www.thecdt.org Discussion Rheumatoid arthritis is known to be one of the causes of heart valve destruction, leading to both valve stenosis and valve insufficiency (3). There are several case reports on aortic insufficiency caused by rheumatoid arthritis (4-6), but in almost all cases, aortic insufficiency progressed chronically, not acutely. In this case, it was difficult to confirm the relationship between rheumatoid arthritis activity and acute aortic insufficiency because three kinds of immunosuppressants were prescribed that might suppress the anti-inflammatory response. The C-reactive protein, white blood cell count, and antinuclear antibody values were normal throughout her hospital stay, and her joint pain was controlled. Therefore, we could not use a clinical scoring system such as the 28-joint disease activity score (DAS28) or health assessment questionnaire (HAQ) to evaluate the severity of the rheumatoid arthritis. However, the thickening and shrunken heart valve was one of the well-known features of this disease and she had no other evidence which induced valve was a well-known feature of this disease, and she had no evidence of other factors that would induce valve malfunction; therefore, we considered this condition to be acute aortic insufficiency induced by rheumatoid arthritis. With regard to acute aortic insufficiency, Aziz et al. (7) reported a case that showed disease progression within 1 month and Mannaerts et al. (8) reported a case that showed disease progression within 2 years. We report here a rare case in which inflammation of the cardiac valves progressed to the acute phase within just 2 weeks, appearing as valvular shrinkage, which induced acute aortic insufficiency. In general, inflammatory changes occurring in collagen diseases show chronic progression, but not in our case. We need to be aware of the possibility of acute aortic Figure 1 Echocardiography showing severe aortic regurgitation.

Conclusions We report a case of acute aortic insufficiency induced by severe rheumatoid arthritis. We need to recognize rheumatoid arthritis as one of the important risk factors for acute heart valve deterioration. Acknowledgements Disclosure: The authors declare no conflict of interest.
