Persistent left superior vena cava (LSVC) is a rare congenital anomaly. Its prevalence in the general population 0.1 to 0.5%. LSVC 5 times rarer when accompanied by an absence of right (RSVC). We present case 54-year-old man who carries persistent without RSVC. Clinically, this patient presented regular bradycardia at 40 per minute associated with heart failure syndrome. The electrocardiogram diagnosed complete atrioventricular block and transthoracic echocardiography showed dilated cavities...

Left ventricular noncompaction (LVNC) is a rare unclassified heart disease characterized by the presence of multiple left intraventricular trabeculations. We report case 52-year-old man admitted to hospital with congestive failure, which revealed non-compaction ventricle on basis echocardiographic criteria Jenni. The patient was treated and progressed favourably. Outpatient follow-up organised.

Aortic dissection (DA) defined by longitudinal cleavage of the aortic wall, at level media from an intimal breach, is a diagnostic and therapeutic emergency. Out total 467 hospitalized patients, we reported 6 cases observed CNHU-HKM, Cotonou, in 2017. The patients were 53.33 years old (33-65 old), they comprised 4 women 2 men. Hypertension was present 5 patients. Chest pain, most common telltale sign, found but typical only cases. Three (3) had severe hypertension when admitted, differential...
Background: The SARS-CoV-2 infection has polymorphic clinical presentations. real time PCR is the reference diagnostic test; however, it can only detect presence of virus for a specific window time. Case: We report case in patient aged 66 years. His history included known hypertension 10 years and ischemic stroke. He had no contact with infected persons. initially presented productive cough, fever, shortness breath on exertion, intense asthenia palpitations. upper airway samples was...
