Involvement of the cardiac valves in juvenile rheumatoid arthritis (JRA) is a rare but life threatening complication. We report a 9 1/2-year-old girl with rheumatoid factor positive polyarticular JRA who developed aortic insufficiency that required valve replacement. Six months later she developed angina due to narrowing of the left coronary artery, probably secondary to aortitis.
青少年类风湿关节炎(JRA)累及心脏瓣膜是一种罕见但危及生命的并发症。我们报告一名9岁半的类风湿因子阳性多关节型JRA女孩,她出现了主动脉瓣关闭不全,需要进行瓣膜置换。6个月后,她因左冠状动脉狭窄出现心绞痛,可能继发于主动脉炎。
