Abstract

Cardiovascular emergencies represent life-threatening conditions requiring a high index of clinical suspicion. In an emergency scenario, a simple stepwise biomarker/imaging diagnostic algorithm may help prompt diagnosis and timely treatment along with related improved outcomes. This article describes several clinical cases of cardiovascular emergencies, such as coronary stent thrombosis-restenosis, takotsubo syndrome, acute myocarditis, massive pulmonary embolism, type A acute aortic dissection, cardiac tamponade, and endocarditis.

Abstract

In 44 patients affected by systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) without any clinical signs of heart disease (group I) the myocardial performance index (MPI) was calculated to investigate left ventricular function. The index, as the sum of isovolumetric contraction time (ICT) and isovolumetric relaxation time (IRT) divided by ejection time (ET), was measured by tissue Doppler echocardiography (TDE). Results achieved show a prolonged MPI with respect to the values recorded in healthy controls (group II). Its prolongation is due to a significant increase of IRT, whereas ICT and ET were within the normal limits. In patients with SLE without an evident cardiac engagement, this outcome seems to depend on a prevalent diastolic left ventricular dysfunction, perhaps due to a subclinical myocarditis. TDE is more precise than the conventional Doppler method in evaluating MPI and single time intervals, because their measurements are accomplished in concomitance of left ventricular wall motion rather than the flow movement.

Abstract

Lipomatous hypertrophy of interatrial septum is a very rare condition associated with supraventricular arrhythmias and sudden death. The authors describe two clinical cases of lipomatous hypertrophy and underline usefulness of multiplane transesophageal echocardiography in the diagnosis of this affection.

Abstract

Despite the increasing number of reports on lipomatous hypertrophy of interatrial septum, a standardization of measurement of the dimensions of the interatrial septum (IAS) in the different phases of cardiac cycle has not been reported. Moreover, no data on modification of thickness with age and in specific cardiac diseases are available.Our purpose was to study whether the changes of thickness and thinning of IAS may be related to age, left atrial dimension, cardiac cycle and different cardiac diseases.248 patients (mean age 52.7 +/- 19.9 years) underwent transthoracic (TTE) and transesophageal (TEE) echocardiography. IAS was measured at the constant regions anterior and posterior to the fossa ovalis. IAS thickness (tk), thinning (th) and % thinning (% th) were measured.IAS thickness ranged from 4 to 13 mm at the time of ventricular end-systolic phase (mean 6.7 +/- 1.9 mm) and from 6 to 16 mm at the time of atrial systole (mean 9.9 +/- 1.8 mm); significant statistical difference between these values was found (P0.01). IAS thinning ranged from 1 to 7 mm (mean 3.42 +/- 1.8) while % IAS thinning from 18 to 76% (mean 36.53 +/- 16.36%). Statistical analysis showed a significant positive correlation between age and ventricular end-systolic thickness and atrial systolic thickness and thinning. An insignificant correlation was found between age and % IAS thinning and between left atrial dimension and IAS tk and th.Our results demonstrate that IAS thickness increases by age; no correlation exists between IAS thinning and age. There is no difference between IAS thickness and thinning in patients with or without cardiac disease. We believe that the thickness of IAS can be considered hypertrophic only if it exceeds the value of 15 mm during both ventricular end-systolic and atrial systolic phases of the cardiac cycle. IAS thickness and thinning might be an additional parameter to evaluate systolic atrial function particularly with regard to maintenance of synus rhythm after conversion from atrial fibrillation as well as to better understand its role in determining the filling of ventricles in different clinical conditions.

Abstract

In order to assess the left ventricular systolic function we studied by echo 14 pts (8M, 6F) with complete atrioventricular septal defect (AVSD) who had undergone surgical repair. Mean age was 20.30 +/- 24.63 months, with a follow-up of 52.85 +/- 19.11%; in 6 pts Down syndrome was associated. Particularly, we tried to determine whether the following factors might affect the post-operative left ventricular systolic function: a) Down syndrome; b) residual mild mitral regurgitation; c) age of the surgical repair; d) length of the follow-up. As load-independent indexes of contractility, the left ventricular end systolic stress (LVESS)-circumferential fibre shortening velocity normalized for heart rate (VCFc) relationship and the LVESS/end systolic volume index (ESVI) ratio were chosen. All pts showed normal (mean +/- 2 standard deviations) or slightly higher values of LVESS/VCFc relationship; significantly, the only two pts with lower values had later undergone surgical repair. LVESS/ESVI ratio confirmed an inverse relationship between systolic function and age of the surgical correction (r = -0.75); no other factors (Down syndrome, residual mild mitral regurgitation, length of the follow-up) showed a significant correlation with the post-operative left ventricular systolic function. In conclusion, in our limited population, the age of the surgical repair appears to be the main factor affecting the post surgical left ventricular systolic function in pts with complete AVSD.
