Cardiomegaly and Paradoxical Pulse
Archives of Internal Medicine, 1978A middle-aged man with a history of surgery for bronchogenic carcinoma was initially seen at the emergency room with weakness. Physical examination disclosed a paradoxical pulse of 15 mm Hg and on a chest roentgenogram, the cardiac silhouette was greatly enlarged. The ECG was abnormal; the echocardiogram is shown (Fig 1).

Massive Cardiomegaly in a Neonate
Chest, 1975T his 83 pound infant was the product of an uneventful pregnancy and delivery. Apgar scores were 1 and 6. Physical examination revealed a cyanotic newborn with a heart rate of 120 per minute, respiratory rate of 50 per minute, and systolic blood pressure of 90 mm Hg in all extremities.

Cardiomegaly in a young infant
Cardiovascular Pathology, 1996Case Presentation A male infant was born at term (vaginal route, forceps used at the mid-pelvic level) after an uneventful pregnancy to a 30-year-old primigravida, in whom polyhydramnios was noted at surgical rupture of the membranes. Late decelerations of the fetal heart were noted during the first stage of labor.

Cardiomegaly in neonatal hypoglycemia
European Journal of Pediatrics, 1976Chest X-rays of 24 hypoglycemic newborns were compared with those of a matched control group of newborns with normal blood glucose levels. In the hypoglycemic group heart size was found to be significantly greater than in the control group. No correlation could be established between the degree of cardiomegaly and the severity of hypoglycemia.

Cardiomegaly and pectus excavatum
Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1973This 21-year-old man presented for evaluation of cardiomegaly noted on a chest roentgenogram obtained because of palpitation. He had no other symptom of heart disease and his physical examination was normal except for a moderate pectus excavatum deformity. #{176}From the Pulmonary Disease Service, Madigan Army Medical Center,Tacoma.

Giornale italiano di cardiologia (2006), 2016
We present the case of a patient who came to our attention for enlargement of the cardiac silhouette on chest X-ray. Echocardiography showed moderate diastolic overload of both ventricles with enhanced cardiac output without valvular disease or cardiac shunt that could account for this cardiomegaly.

Cardiomyopathy without cardiomegaly in alcoholics
American Heart Journal, 1972Abstract For obvious reasons it is important to recognize alcoholic cardiomyopathy early in its natural history. Hemodynamic studies were performed in nine patients with normal ECG's and normal cardiothoracic ratios on chest x-rays. Findings were elevated mean LV end-diastolic pressure, low mean cardiac output, and depressed myocardial contractility.

PULMONARY EDEMA WITHOUT CARDIOMEGALY
American Journal of Roentgenology, 1968Pulmonary edema of both cardiac and noncardiac origin can occur in the presence of a normal sized heart. Cognizance of this fact can prevent significant diagnostic and therapeutic errors.

Spontaneous “Cardiomegaly” Following Pericardiectomy
Journal of Cardiac Surgery, 2009A 64-year-old woman presented eight days following pericardiectomy with a 2-day history of progressive dyspnea and new crushing chest pain. Chest x-ray revealed development of interval "cardiomegaly." Bedside echocardiography revealed a large accumulation of pericardial fluid despite absence of pericardium.

Bronchial carcinoma with eosinophilia and cardiomegaly
British Journal of Diseases of the Chest, 1975A patient with a giant cell carcinoma of the bronchus presented with headache and flushing attacks and a blood eosinophilia. He developed a right bundle branch block and later congestive cardiac failure. At post mortem he was found to have the appearance of Loeffler's endocarditis. A tentative mechanism for these events is proposed.
