Left ventricular rupture after mitral valve replacement in a patient with osteogenesis imperfecta tarda. A Lijoi, S Cisico, E Caputo, F Scarano, E Parodi, and G C Passerone Department of Cardiac Surgery, University of Genoa, Hospital San Martino, Italy. Abstract We describe the case of a patient with osteogenesis imperfecta tarda (Lobstein's syndrome) and mitral valve insufficiency. The course after mitral valve replacement was complicated by rupture of the left ventricular posterior wall, which caused massive bleeding and sudden death. The pathologic findings and the operative problems are discussed. Full text Full text is available as a scanned copy of the original print version.
