Motor vehicle accident (MVA) account for most cases of traumatic rupture the tricuspid valve. Valve during an MVA is generated by abrupt deceleration coupled with increase in right-side cardiac pressures (Valsalva maneuver and thorax compression).A 39-year-old asymptomatic man was referred echocardiogram due to presence a systolic murmur. He had no prior significant medical history, except remote 3 years ago. Real-time 3D echocardiography (RT3DE) showed tear body anterior leaflet not at...
Introducción: Con el objetivo de establecer diagnóstico amiloidosis cardíaca por transtiretina (AC-TTR) en etapas precoces, los últimos años, se lograron identificar ciertas señales alerta o ¨banderas rojas¨ para orientar la sospecha. Sin embargo, hasta momento, contamos con escasa evidencia a cerca sensibilidad y especificidad diagnóstica cada bandera roja si existe alguna combinación variables que pueda predecir forma confiable presencia AC-TTR. Objetivo: Desarrollar un modelo predicción...
Background: To verify the diagnosis of transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis (ATTR-CA) in its early stages, certain warning signs or "red flags" have been lately identified to guide suspicion. However, date, there is little evidence regarding diagnostic sensitivity and specificity each red flag whether any combination variables that can reliably predict presence ATTR-CA. Objective: The aim this study was develop a prediction model based on clinical, electrocardiographic and/or echocardiographic...
Abstract Background Historically, a positive exercise stress test (EST) with normal myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) in patients without obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) was considered false of the EST and associated good prognosis. However, it is crucial to acknowledge that ischemia may present itself due microvascular dysfunction (MVD) even absence CAD. The assessment MVD can be conducted both invasively non-invasively, latter involving determination flow reserve (MFR). Various...
Quantification of mitral regurgitation (MR) by two-dimensional (2D) transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) is based on the analysis proximal flow convergence (PFC) and "vena contracta" (VC). This method assumes geometries can be misleading. In contrast, three-dimensional (3D) directly measures volumes does not assume geometries, which allows for more accurate MR evaluation.To report 3D transesophageal (3DTEE) feasibility quantification evaluate its concordance with 2D echo.Twenty-seven...
Abstract Background Metastatic cardiac calcifications are often seen in patients with renal failure and dialysis associated vascular calcification other organs. There is little to no evidence of metastatic a history rickets. Case summary A 40-year-old patient rickets treated infancy personal cardiovascular or disease came for periodical examination. Transthoracic echocardiogram showed an important the mitral annulus mitro-aortic junction. Computed tomography (CT) marked affecting heart...

Abstract Funding Acknowledgements Type of funding sources: None. Introduction INOCA syndrome (Ischemia with Non-Obstructive Coronary Arteries) is an increasingly frequent finding. One the proposed causes microvascular dysfunction (MVD). CZT-SPECT systems quantifies myocardial blood flow (MBF) during rest and after hyperemia. Dipyridamole induced hyperemia considered endothelium independent whereas cold pressor test (CPT) dependent. Using both stimuli vasomotor response can be evaluated...
The present study provides actual data with regard to the prevalence of myocardial ischemia among patients under contemporary cardiovascular prevention strategies undergoing peripheral vascular interventions. We included a total 200 consecutive who underwent gated single-photon emission computed tomography perfusion between January 2012 and 2014 as preoperative evaluation for interventions at our institution. baseline medical treatment comprised aspirin (81%), statins (79%), β-blockers...
