Abstract

Abstract We presented a 39-year-old female patient with life-threatening hypoxemia after tricuspid valve replacement because of Ebstein's anomaly. And the severe cyanosis is due to bioprosthetic valve stenosis and atrial septal defect. Anesthetic management of a patient with severe obstructive prosthetic valve dysfunction can be challenging. Similar considerations should be given to patients with Ebstein's anomaly to maintain the pressure equalized between the right and left atrial. Transesophageal echocardiography and cerebral oxygen saturation provided real time information in perioperative care.

Resumo

Resumo Apresentamos o caso de uma paciente de 39 anos, com hipoxemia em risco de vida após a substituição da valva tricúspide devido à anomalia de Ebstein e cianose grave devido à estenose de valva bioprotética e comunicação interatrial. O manejo anestésico de um paciente com disfunção obstrutiva grave de prótese valvar pode ser um desafio. Os pacientes com anomalia de Ebstein também precisam de atenção especial para manter a pressão equalizada entre o átrio direito e o esquerdo. A ecocardiografia transesofágica e a saturação cerebral de oxigênio forneceram informações em tempo real nos cuidados perioperatórios.
