Abstract
An Unusual Case of Acute Aortic Insufficiency from a Torn Non-Coronary Cusp
Carolyn Moore, Taher Tayeb, Dak Burnett and Emmanuel Daon*
Background: Aortic Insufficiency (AI) is a valvular heart disease leading to inadequate closure of the valve leaflets. There are many different etiologies of AI.
Case presentation: This case addresses an unknown etiology of acute AI from a torn non-coronary aortic cusp with associated acute heart failure that was ultimately treated with an aortic valve replacement.
Conclusion: Regardless of the etiology, prompt diagnosis, stabilization, and treatment are paramount to preventing progressive heart failure.
