Background: The high cardiotoxicity morbidity and mortality rates associated with the antineoplastic therapy for breast cancer could be reduced early use of cardioprotective drugs. However, low sensitivity left ventricular ejection fraction limits its in that preventive strategy. New parameters, such as global longitudinal strain, are being used detection contractile function changes. Objectives: To assess incidence patients treated cancer, independent factors event, ability strain to...
The purpose of these Guidelines is to inform.They do not substitute the clinical judgment doctors who, in final analysis, must determine which tests and treatments are appropriate for their patients.

Embora tumores cardíacos sejam raros e frequentemente encontrados de forma acidental, podem estar associados a sintomas constitucionais, ou embólicos. Portanto, esses devem ser sempre considerados nas hipóteses diagnósticas para auxiliar na sua diferenciação. O ecodopplercardiograma tridimensional (3D) o agente realce ultrassonográfico apresentam-se como recursos diagnósticos adicionais ajudar determinar melhor abordagem cirúrgica, caso seja indicada.
Although cardiac tumors are rare and often found accidentally, they can be associated with constitutional, cardiac, or embolic symptoms and, thus, must always considered in diagnostic hypotheses.Three-dimensional Doppler echocardiography contrast enhancement
•AMVT is a rare congenital cardiac malformation.•AMVT can be an incidental finding.•Endocarditis and embolic events are known complications.•Transthoracic transesophageal echocardiography fundamental for its diagnosis.
O forame oval patente (FOP) é o tipo de shunt interatrial mais comum, com prevalência entre 25 e 27% da população adulta. Tem funcionamento flap-like geralmente assintomático. Em alguns casos, pode estar associado a complicações clínicas como acidente vascular encefálico (AVE), embolia paradoxal, síndrome platipneia-ortodeóxia apneia do sono obstrutiva. diagnóstico se impõe principalmente em pacientes jovens que apresentam AVE, sem outro fator risco aparente. A avaliação FOP comumente...

Introduction Graves’ disease (GD) is an autoimmune and the most common cause of thyrotoxicosis,, with multisystem involvement, that mainly affects women between 40 60 years age. It prevalent hyperthyroidism in pregnancy,, it can be distinguished from gestational thyrotoxicosis due to presence diffuse goiter previous history hyperthyroidism. Clinical occurs 0.2% pregnant women. Heart failure (HF) a rare manifestation decompensated GD [...]

Melanocarcinoma, considered the most malignant of skin tumors, with enormous potential for systemic metastasis mainly through blood, usually occurs from 30 to 60 years age. Its incidence increases progressively, affecting 4% 8% white population2. Until recently, cardiac involvement was rarely diagnosed3. The limitations imaging methods associated nonspecific clinical symptoms made this diagnosis a challenge. Positron emission tomography (PET scan), together 3D TTE, plays an important role in...
O surgimento de uma nova ferramenta não invasiva conhecida como miocardial work para avaliação da função ventricular que independe das condições carga foi fundamental no avanço dos métodos imagem vigentes o strain miocárdico, considerada técnica sensível na detecção disfunção subclínica, entretanto, ainda dependente carga, impossibilitando diferenciar alteração contrátil interferência somente causada pelo aumento pós-carga. Essa tecnologia incorporada ao miocárdico aumentará a sensibilidade...
