Persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC) is the most common thoracic venous anomaly and may be a component of complex cardiac pathologies. While it often asymptomatic, can lead to significant problems such as arrhythmias cyanosis. Besides, cause serious complications during vascular interventional procedures or surgical treatment anomalies (CA). The clinical significance PLSVC depends on drainage site accompanying CA. In this article, we will describe epidemiology, embryology, anatomic...
Left images: Top: (A) Echocardiography shows a dilated pulmonary artery, large aortopulmonary window (dotted line), and abnormally positioned aortic arch. (B) MIP image reveals superior RV, inferior LV, elongated arch vessels (arrows). Bottom: MinIP thin left main bronchus non-aerated RML (asterisk). Right VRT highlights (arrows), APW. Topsy-turvy heart (TTH) is rare congenital anomaly characterized by 90° clockwise rotation of the entire around its long axis AV connections causing...
It has been shown that the main apolipoprotein of HDL, Apo A-1, is subjected to nitration by myeloperoxidase (MPO) and this oxidative modification renders HDL proatherogenic. The aim study evaluate relationship between plasma MPO levels, severity coronary artery disease.Forty-eight patients with narrowing 30 control subjects were enrolled in study. disease was assessed Gensini scoring after angiography. concentrations determined using an enzyme immunoassay. A subgroup underwent computerized...
The aim of this study is to show the usefulness MDCT in diagnosis myocardial bridging. Although most time bridging a benign condition, it may be associated with ischemia and secondary complications. Therefore, important able diagnose presence bridging.MDCT an effective noninvasive method for because can length depth tunneled artery diameter percentage stenosis segments showing systolic diastolic phases. Moreover, efficient other coronary artery, myocardial, epicardial, neighboring thoracic...
There is limited information regarding myocardial alterations in patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) the absence of pulmonary and cardiac comorbidity. In this study, we aimed to evaluate potential these investigate possible effects OSAS-related pathological variations on left right ventricular functions.We studied 107 consecutive who were referred our laboratory for clinically suspected OSAS 30 controls without any history or symptoms sleep-related disorders. Severity was...
Patients with end-stage renal disease have a very high prevalence and extent of arterial calcification. A number studies suggest that similar pathophysiologic mechanisms are responsible for development progression calcification atherosclerotic plaque bone formation. Fetuin-A is potent inhibitor expressed in bone, not-yet well-defined functions. The aim this study was to investigate the relation between mineral densitometry parameters, coronary artery calcification, serum fetuin-A levels. In...
The purpose of this study is to determine early myocardial dysfunction in β-thalassemia major (BTM) patients. Where the cannot be detected by conventional echocardiography, it could tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) or speckle tracking echocardiography (STE).In study, we analyzed 60 individuals, 30 whom were BTM patients and other control group. T2* magnetic resonance (MRI) was used measure cardiac iron deposition. functions evaluated TDI STE.When basal lateral left ventricular septal wall values...
A case of bleeding pulmonary artery pseudoaneurysm secondary to squamous cell lung cancer is reported. The patient presented with massive hemoptysis, diagnosis was made multidetector computed tomography, and the successfully embolized platinum coils. Hemoptysis ceased following procedure.
Coronary artery fistulas are rare and usually asymptomatic congenital anomalies generally diagnosed incidentally during coronary angiographies. Herein, we present a case of bronchial to fistula which was embolization. Embolization performed successfully without complication, an underlying important stenosis subsequently found by computed tomography angiography.
In this study, we aimed to evaluate the incidence of pulmonary abnormalities and document early follow-up results in subjects undergoing multislice computed tomography coronary angiography for assessment artery disease.In retrospective analysis, 1206 patients including 701 men (58.1%) with a mean age 58.75 (SD, 11.4) years were involved study who underwent imaging 64-slice dual-source scanner. Pulmonary reported as nodules, mass, emphysema, bullae, atelectasia, bronchiectasia, pleural...
