Multimodal Cardiac Imaging of Immune‐Mediated Complications Post Heart Transplantation: A Contemporary Review

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease
Heart transplantation significantly enhances survival and quality of life for patients with end‐stage heart failure. Despite advances in surgical and postoperative care, immune‐mediated complications, acute graft rejection and cardiac allograft ...

Anomalous left coronary artery with single ostium (Shared with Right Coronary Artery) detected by echocardiography: Two case reports

Cardiology Plus, 2018
Anomalous aortic origin of a coronary artery (AAOCA) from the inappropriate sinus of Valsalva has received increasing attention due to its association with malignant cardiac events in otherwise healthy and asymptomatic individuals. Despite this, we still

Unveiling a rare case: Cardiac rupture secondary to acute occlusion of the distal left circumflex artery detected by contrast-enhanced spiral CT

Heliyon, 2023
A 79-year-old female patient was admitted to the hospital due to intense chest pain. Emergency percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) revealed an occlusion in the distal portion of the left circumflex artery (LCx).

Double Coronary–Cameral Fistula: Right Coronary Artery and Circumflex to Left Atrium

Annals of Internal Medicine: Clinical Cases, 2023
Coronary fistulas are an abnormal communication of the coronary arteries with the cardiac chambers or any vascular structure. Most are detected incidentally.

Case report: Acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction and cardiogenic shock caused by a giant right sinus of Valsalva aneurysm and right coronary artery compression

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
A sinus of Valsalva aneurysm (SVA) is a rare aortic disease that may be congenital or acquired. Patients with an intact SVA are usually asymptomatic, whereas a ruptured SVA may cause acute chest pain and dyspnea.

Coronary Calcium Characteristics as Predictors of Major Adverse Cardiac Events in Symptomatic Patients: Insights From the CORE320 Multinational Study

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2019
Background The predictive value of coronary artery calcium (CAC) has been widely studied; however, little is known about specific characteristics of CAC that are most predictive.

Determination of Pericardial Adipose Tissue Increases the Prognostic Accuracy of Coronary Artery Calcification for Future Cardiovascular Events [PDF]

, 2012
Objectives: Pericardial adipose tissue (PAT) is associated with coronary artery plaque accumulation and the incidence of coronary heart disease. We evaluated the possible incremental prognostic value of PAT for future cardiovascular events.

Practical Clinical Application of Cardiac Computed Tomography–Derived Fractional Flow Reserve

Cardiovascular Innovations and Applications, 2019
In the past decade, advances in coronary computed tomography angiography (CTA) technology have resulted in high sensitivity and negative predictive value in detecting coronary artery disease (CAD) compared with invasive coronary angiography, particularly

Anomalous Origin of the Right Coronary Artery Causing Myocardial Ischemia: A Case for a Multimodality Imaging Approach

Case Reports in Cardiology, 2021
A 46-year-old man was admitted with non-ST elevation myocardial infarction and newly diagnosed acutely decompensated heart failure. Echocardiogram demonstrated left ventricular ejection fraction of 30% with basal inferior and inferolateral akinesis ...
