A 44-year-old woman with a prosthetic aortic valve was admitted to the cardiology department with shortness of breath and a new diastolic murmur. Transthoracic (TTE) and transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) were performed, the latter revealing a fistula between the aortic root and the right atrium (Figure 1A). Although blood cultures were negative, the final diagnosis was endocarditis. Prior to surgery, cardiac computed tomography (CT) confirmed the presence of a subaortic fistula (Figure 1B).

(0.3MB).

Cardiac CT is an emerging tool for detection of complications after aortic valve replacement, especially in cases in which TTE or TEE are inconclusive. Cardiac CT can be useful in detection of dehiscence, abscess formation, valve obstruction, pseudoaneurysms or, as in the case reported, fistulas between heart chambers. It may also provide incremental benefit in the preoperative assessment of patients with endocarditis.
