Background: Loop diuretics are an integral part of heart failure management. It has been shown that loop cause thiamine deficiency (TD) by increasing its urinary loss. The aim this study was to determine the prevalence TD in patients on long-term oral diuretics. Methods: Heart (cases) (furosemide ≥40 mg/day or torsemide ≥20 mg/day), irrespective failure, were compared non-heart (controls) not a 1:1 ratio. Whole blood free level determined liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry...
Acromegaly has several cardiovascular manifestations of which cardiomyopathy (CMP) and hypertension (HTN) are important contribute to the increased mortality associated with disease. Both these reversible treatment. However, very advanced CMP severe systolic dysfunction low likelihood reversal. The reversibility is higher in young population decreases as age advances. Also, time required for resolve about 1 year. Here, we describe a case HTN heart failure resolved an aged patient within...
Left ventricular outflow tract obstruction (LVOTO) has been reported with bio-prosthetic and mechanical mitral valves (MV), though it is more common the former. The can be dynamic or fixed. We hereby report a case of fixed LVOTO following MV replacement (MVR).
Aims and Objectives: This study was designed to compare streptokinase (STK) versus recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activator (rt-PA) for thrombolysis in patients with prosthetic heart valve thrombosis (PHVT). Background: Optimal management of PHVT remains controversial. Thrombolytic therapy is a reasonable alternative surgery. Numerous thrombolytic protocols STK, urokinase, rt-PA have been used over the past 40 years. So far there lack consensus on ideal agent PHVT. There are no major...
The coexistence of cor triatriatum and tetralogy Fallot (TOF) is rare. Preoperative identification may be difficult owing to reduced pulmonary blood flow in patients with TOF. However, it imperative identify this rare combination as failure obstruction venous egress result persistent hypertension postoperatively. authors discuss hemodynamic aspects a 14-month-old child whom capillary wedge pressure was elevated despite right ventricular outflow obstruction.
Central (garland) aortopulmonary shuntA 24-year-old woman, with unoperated tetralogy of Fallot, presented refractory cyanosis and was listed for emergency palliative shunt surgery.Preoperative cardiac catheterisation or CT angiography could not be performed.The size the pulmonary artery (PA) appeared borderline on echocardiographic assessment.A central shunt, connecting ascending aorta to main PA, created using a 6 mm polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) prosthesis.The chosen because it an...
A forty-two year male patient with bileaflet mechanical mitral valve prosthesis presented sudden onset breathlessness and haemodynamic collapse. He was in New York Heart Association (NYHA) class IV status a pulse rate of 120 b.p.m. blood pressure 90/60 mmHg. Bilateral extensive crepitations over lung fields could be auscultated. had stopped oral anticoagulation for past 15 days subtherapeutic international normalized …
Introduction: Large aorto-pulmonary collaterals (APCs) if left untreated can be an important cause of deterioration in the early postoperative period. We present here unusual case large residual APC causing refractory shock successfully closed by duct occluder delivered tranvenous route. Case: A 3-year-old male child with PA-VSD underwent surgical repair. Percutaneous closure multiple APCs were done pre-op, but three sizable could not because technical difficulties. During repair these...
