A Case Based Review of Cardiac
Surgery Objectives for the MCC
Qualifying Exam 2009
B-K Lam, MDCM
University of Ottawa Heart Institute
Objectives
• Using demonstrative cases, this lecture will highlight the
cardiac surgical aspects of the differential diagnoses
included in the MCC qualifying exam objectives
• MCC Objectives for the Qualifying Examination covered
in this review:
– Cardiac arrest (p. 13)
– Chest discomfort (p. 14)
– Dyspnea (p. 27)
• Acute (p. 27-1)
• Chronic (p. 27-2)
– Diastolic murmur (p. 62-1)
– Heart sounds pathological (p. 62-2)
– Systolic murmur (p. 62-3)
– Trauma
• Chest injuries – heart injury (p.109-4)
Case 1
• A 48 year-old man is awakened early in the
morning by sharp anterior chest pain that
radiates to his back. He presents to the
emergency room several hours later reporting
that his pain has subsided but he is very short of
breath. His past medical history is significant for
poorly controlled hypertension. On examination,
BP is 150/40, P100, RR 24, 88% on 2L/min of
O2. His cardiac exam is noticeable for an absent
S2, a loud 4/6 diastolic murmur; he also has an
accompanying systolic ejection murmur. You
also notice that his left carotid pulse is weaker
than his right.
Case 1 - Questions
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
What is the differential diagnosis?
Why is this patient short of breath?
Why is his left carotid weak?
What diagnostic tests would you order?
In general, how do you classify this disorder?
How would you classify it in this patient?
What therapy would you implement in the
emergency room?
• How would you further manage this patient and
why?

MI
Aortic Dissection
PE
(Tension Pneumothorax)
Acute dyspnea - Ddx
• Cardiac
– Ischemic heart disease
(acute myocardial
ischemia)
– Myocardial dysfunction
(congestive heart failure)
• Ischemic/Hypertensive
cardiomyopathy
• Dilated (idiopathic,
alcoholic,
hemochromatosis)
• Pericardial disease
(tamponade)
• Valvular (Mitral
regurgitation, Aortic
Insufficiency)
• Pulmonary
– Upper airway
• Aspiration
• Anaphylaxis
– Ventilatory pump:
• Pleura (pneumothorax),
• Airways (bronchitis,
bronchospasm)
– Gas exchanger
• Pulmonary embolus
• Pneumonia (viral,
bacterial, atypical, fungus)
– ARDS
• Vasculitis (Wegener,
Goodpasture)
– Respiratory control
(metabolic acidosis, ASA
toxicity)
Weak L carotid
• Dissection flap causing obstruction of true
lumen
Diagnostic Tests
•
•
•
•
•
•
CK, TNt
ECG
CXR
TEE
CT
MRI
Classification
Debakey
A
Stanford
B
What type of dissection
• Stanford A
• Debakey I or II
Acute Management
• Beta Blockade
– Reduces wall stress on aorta
– dP/dT
– Rupture prevention
• Antihypertensives
– Reduces shear stress on the aorta
– Anti-impulse/propagation therapy
– Nitroglycerine
– Nitroprusside
Definitive Therapy
• Surgery
• Type A dissection is a surgical emergency
• Terrible natural history:
– “1%/hour” rule
• 50% dead in 48 hours
• 70% dead by 1 week
• Medical Tx = 60% mortality rate
– Modes of death
• Rupture with hemopericardium, hemomediastinum or
hemothorax
• Organ dysfunction
Case 2
• An 19 year old male is received a single stab
wound to the chest outside a night club. He is
brought to the ER, conscious and complaining of
pain and shortness of breath. On examination,
you observe a 3cm wound just left of his
sternum in the 5th interspace. His BP is 85/60,
P100, RR18, 95% on 2L/min of O2. His skin is
slightly mottled and cool; his JVP is 8cm. By
auscultation, air entry is fair bilaterally, heart
sounds are muffled and peripheral pulses are
weak. The rest of the physical is normal. Shortly
after arriving in the patient becomes
unresponsive. Pulses are not palpable, the
monitor shows normal sinus rhythm.
Case 2 - Questions
•
•
•
•
What are the most concerning clinical signs?
What is the diagnosis?
What structure is most likely injured?
What other structure should you be worried
about?
• Prior to arrest what diagnostic tests would you
order?
• What type of cardiac arrest is this and why has it
occurred?
• How would you manage the arrest?
Concerning Clinical Signs
•
•
•
•
•
Hypotension
Tachycardia
Muffled heart sounds
JVP elevated
Weak peripheral Pulses
CARDIAC TAMPONADE!
Commonly injured
• Right ventricular injury most common
– Sits anteriorly in the mediastinum / LV posterior
– RV 43%, LV 34%, RA 16%, LA 7%
• Fatality rate 70-80%
• Survival probability depends on:
– Degree of anatomic injury
– Occurrence of cardiac standstill
• Beck triad only in 10-30% of tamponade cases
• Pericardiocentesis: 80% false negative
• FAST U/S: 95% sensitivity
Associated Chest Injuries
• Cardiac
– Rule out LAD coronary artery injuries
– Valvular injury
• Lung (pneumo/hemothorax)
• Tracheobronchial
– 75-80% involvement of cervical trachea
• Esophagus (<1%)
• Diaphragm (45%)
– 15% >2cm, 13% missed with 85% returning with hernia)
• Thoracic great vessel (0.3-10%)
– 90% due penetrating trauma, 71% hospital survival
Diagnostic Tests

Labs

Cardiac Arrest
• PEA arrest
• Cardiac tamponade prevents adequate
cardiac filling and subsequently cardiac
output
• This is not hypovolemia
Arrest Management

•
•

Intubation
CPR
Manage underlying cause
– 5H’s & 5T’s
– ER thoracotomy

Case 3
• An unrestrained 23 year old driver ran a
red light and collided with another vehicle
in a t-bone fashion. He is brought to the
ER, conscious complaining of sternal pain.
On examination, you observe bruising on
his anterior chest. HR 115, BP 90/50 and
RR15. The patient’s JVP is flat and lungs
are clear. A CXR is performed and it
shows a widened mediastinum, a pleural
cap and a fracture of the first rib.

• Explain the physical findings.
• What is your differential diagnosis?
• What are the mechanisms of injury in blunt
trauma?

this injury? (Where does it occur and why?)
• What is the initial management?
• What are the definitive management options?

Case 4
• A surprisingly healthy and active 78 year old
female presents to you with chest heaviness
when she walks. On further questioning she
admits to some dyspnea as well and she has
been awakened from sleep with dyspnea
several times recently. Her only past medical
history is a hysterectomy. On physical
examination, the BP is 100/80 and the pulse is
80 and regular but slow and delayed in quality.
By auscultation, there is a 3/6 crescendodecrescendo systolic ejection murmur at the
right upper sternal border with radiation to the
neck. There is no diastolic murmur noted. The
rest of the physical exam is normal.
