In this review, we summarize previously reported case reports (n=66) in which the presence of ochronotic pigment was found in one or more cardiovascular structures either at necropsy or after operative excision of a cardiac valve or portions of arteries or both. As illustration, we describe black pigment in operatively excised aortic valves and aorta in 2 patients, both probably examples of secondary ochronosis. Ochronosis appears to have fascinated a number of prominent historical figures in medicine, and this review also summarizes their important contributions to this topic.
在这篇综述中,我们总结了此前报道的 66 例病例报告,这些报告中在尸检或心脏瓣膜或动脉的一部分或全部切除后,在一个或多个心血管结构中发现褐黄病色素。作为例证,我们描述了 2 例患者手术切除的主动脉瓣和主动脉中的黑色色素,这两个病例可能都是继发褐黄病的例子。褐黄病似乎引起了许多医学史上杰出人物的兴趣,本综述还总结了他们在这一主题上的重要贡献。
