Palabras clave: degeneración valvular, aorta bivalva, degeneración mixoide, muerte súbita de origen cardiaco, estenosis aórtica.

Resumen

En la actualidad con el uso generalizado de los antibióticos, la fiebre reumática ha perdido el primer puesto como causa de afección de las válvulas del corazón, cediéndolo a otras patologías como el debilitamiento del tejido de la válvula ocasionado por la degeneración mixomatosa, el acumulación de calcio en las válvulas denomina degeneración cálcica, o el hecho mismo de nacer con una válvula de forma irregular como lo es válvula aortica bivalva. Precisamente, esto da pie a la presentación del caso de un joven masculino conocido sano de 16 años de edad el cual muere de forma súbita mientras practica el ciclismo de forma recreative.
