We report a clinical case of multifactorial shock and primary adrenal insufficiency (PAI), caused by bilateral hemorrhage in the context catastrophic antiphospholipid syndrome (CAPS) triggered COVID-19 infection. A 54-year-old woman was admitted with cardiogenic shock, presenting severe cardiac dysfunction, neurological alterations, systemic embolism. Despite initial treatment for suspected septic her condition deteriorated, hemorrhages, markedly elevated adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH)...
Background: Galectin-3 (Gal-3) overexpression is associated with fibroblastic proliferation and the production of collagen, resulting in increased cardiac fibrosis remodelling. Aim study was to investigate on expression Gal-3 hypertrophic hearts. We examined 19 surgical specimens taken from interventricular septum 8 patients Tetralogy Fallot, 4 aortic valve stenosis, 1 explant affected dilated cardiomyopathy, 6 myocardial biopsies submitted heart transplantation. Methods: All samples were...

A 59-year-old woman, with dilated ischemic cardiomyopathy, was urgently admitted to our Intensive Care Unit for cardiogenic shock. ECMO VA implanted and placed on the national emergency waitlist transplantation. potential donation identified ten days later. The donor a 58-year-old no cardiovascular risk factors, had died of rupture cerebral aneurysm left ventricle dysfunction due Takotsubo syndrome. Brain injuries such as hemorrhage, trauma stroke have been extensively documented in...
Abstract Objective To analyze the data of psychological assessment, focusing attention on quality life and status patients who are listed for heart transplant. Methods All failure transplant at Cardiac Surgery Unit Bari University, Italy, were evaluated from September to November 2023, by administering Symptom Checklist‐90‐R (SCL‐90‐R) Short Form Health Survey 36 (SF‐36). Results Overall, 27 studied. Mean age was 60 years, 88% males. One third showed a clinically significant overall mental...

Abstract The advent of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2) infection in China at the end 2019 has developed into a global outbreak, and COVID‐ 19 is an ongoing major public health issue. During pandemic, transplant programs had to devise strategies deal with possibility COVID‐19‐positive donors recipients. We describe case heart recipient who tested positive SARS‐ CoV2 swab upon admission our Unit Cardiac Surgery when suitable donor became available. Given his...
