DOUBLE VALVE REPLACEMENT

||DOUBLE VALVE REPLACEMENT||

51 years old female presented with complaints of breathlessness (NYHA class III). Her echocardiogram revealed severe mitral stenosis with mild to moderate aortic regurgitation, mild LV systolic dysfunction (LVEF -45%). Her coronary angiogram was normal. She was posted for mitral valve replacement by Dr. Srinath Vijayasekharan & Dr. Senthil Kumar and Team. Intraoperatively her TEE showed moderate to severe aortic regurgitation. Consent for double valve replacement was taken during procedure and both mitral and aortic valve was replaced with TTK Chitra valve under cardiopulmonary bypass. Post operatively she remained hemodynamically stable and discharged without any complications.

      ||A Rare and High-Risk Multidisciplinary Triumph at Rela Institute||A 47-year-old man presented to Rela Institute with a complex and life-threatening condition—clear cell renal cell carcinoma (RCC) that had extended beyond the kidney to invade the liver, adrenal gland, and, most critically, the right atrium of the heart via the inferior vena cava (IVC). What began as persistent cough and breathlessness led to a startling discovery—a massive retroperitoneal tumor with intracardiac extension, a rare presentation seen in less than 1% of RCC cases. Imaging including PET-CT, MRI, and CT-pulmonary angiography revealed a large necrotic mass invading multiple organs and extending into
