Congenital aortic diseases (CAoD) encompass a wide variety of disorders that range from asymptomatic findings to life-threatening conditions. Multiple imaging techniques are available for the assessment CAoD.We present seven case reports congenital diseases, including obstructions in arch (coarctation, hypoplasia, and interruption) vascular rings, which clinical manifestations throughout cases discussed, highlighting heterogeneity symptoms.Multi-imaging indispensable CAoD, where cardiac...
Background: The association between Ebstein anomaly and myocardial fibrosis, particularly in the left ventricle, has been controversial. We aimed to assess prevalence of replacement fibrosis with a focus on ventricle (LV) using cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR), make histopathological LV CMR findings, explore whether is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease mortality derived score. Methods: performed 12-year (2009–2021) retrospective cohort adult patients who underwent CMR....
Las enfermedades cardiovasculares constituyen la causa más común de mortalidad en el mundo. Actualmente, diabetes mellitus tipo 2 (DM2) representa uno los principales factores riesgo eventos adversos mayores. Los pacientes que las padecen tienen un cuatro veces mayor desarrollar insuficiencia cardíaca y una 10 a 12 mayor. La ecocardiografía todas sus modalidades es mejor herramienta clínica para diagnóstico cardíaca, ya proporciona imágenes estáticas dinámicas del corazón permiten...
Background: In patients with inferior myocardial infarction (MI), involvement of the right chambers has a prognostic impact. The objective this study was to evaluate influence left ventricular (LV) wall MI in atrial (RA), and (RV) longitudinal strain (LS) by 2D speckle tracking echocardiography (STE). Methods: 60 consecutive who underwent perfusion (MP) gated SPECT for chest pain were included. We studied 30 LV control subjects normal MP. RV ejection fraction measured 3D transthoracic...
Abstract Background The relationship between Ebstein's Anomaly (EA) and myocardial fibrosis in the left ventricle (LV) has been debated. This study aimed to determine prevalence of replacement LV using cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging correlate it with histopathological findings. also investigated whether is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality developed a score this purpose. Methods We performed twelve-years (2009-2021) retrospective cohort adult...
Microvascular angina refers to chest pain associated with coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD).A new paradigm in cardiology was entrenched when the WISE studies demonstrated that may be present patients non-obstructive artery disease (NOCAD).Statistically, there is a higher number of cases women.The prevalence NOCAD has been perceived recent years reaching up 20-30% all CAD.60% symptoms not any sign obstructive (OCAD).In 2015, COVADIS group established diagnostic criteria for...
Myxomas represent the most common benign primary cardiac tumor, they usually grow out of interatrial septum into left atrium with a pedunculated base. Intracardiac masses can be found incidentally on imaging studies, but symptomatology may arise secondary to mass effect, embolization, and valvular function impairment. We present case 75-year-old woman who arrived at emergency department atrial fibrillation NSTEMI segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) highly vascularized neoplasm...
Marfan’s syndrome (MFS) is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by aortic root dilation, mitral valve prolapse and regurgitation. The typical aneurysm location involves the thoracic aorta (60%). Thoracoabdominal dissections are quite infrequent (10%). A type dissection can have fatal complications, such as rupture cardiac tamponade, a prompt diagnosis crucial. present case 46-year-old patient with who was admitted to emergency department for dyspnea. presented congestive signs...
