Radiotherapy is an important treatment modality for various thoracic malignancies but is associated with long-term risk of radiation-associated valve disease (RAVD). We hereby report a case of a lady who had received radiotherapy 30 years back for carcinoma breast and was now found to be having clinically significant RAVD involving all the four cardiac valves. Simultaneous involvement of all the four valves in RAVD is extremely rare and has not been reported previously.
放射治疗是多种胸部恶性肿瘤的重要治疗方式,但与放射性瓣膜病(RAVD)的长期风险相关。我们在此报告一例患者,该女士30年前因乳腺癌接受了放射治疗,目前被发现患有具有临床意义的RAVD,累及所有四个心脏瓣膜。RAVD同时累及所有四个瓣膜极为罕见,此前未见报道。
