Discrimination between physiologic and pathologic left ventricular dilatation
International Journal of Cardiology, 2006The identification of certain cardiovascular disease in athletes may constitute the basis for disqualification from competition in an effort to minimize the risk of sudden cardiac death. The aim of this study was to assess diastolic and systolic parameters measured by tissue Doppler imaging in endurance veteran athletes who had prominent cardiac ...

Clinical and pathologic study of familial dilated cardiomyopathy
The American Journal of Cardiology, 1990To evaluate the occurrence of familial cases of dilated cardiomyopathy (DC), 165 consecutive patients were studied. Diagnosis of myocardial disease was based on clinical, hemodynamic, bioptic, postmortem or a combination of these criteria. Twelve patients (7% of cases) showed evidence of myocardial disease in greater than or equal to 1 relative; 27 ...

Pathologic Changes of the Trachea After Percutaneous Dilational Tracheostomy
Chest, 1996The tracheas of 12 patients who had undergone autopsies after percutaneous dilatational tracheotomy (PDT) were analyzed macroscopically and microscopically. The puncture site of the trachea varied from just below the cricoid cartilage (two patients) to below the third ring (three patients).

Pathologic anatomy of the dilated cardiomyopathies
The American Journal of Cardiology, 1989Dilated cardiomyopathies are characterized by systolic pump failure and by dilatation of the ventricular cavity. Thus, they differ from the other 2 main types of cardiomyopathies, namely, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and restrictive/obliterative cardiomyopathy.

Allograft Pathology in Patients Transplanted for Idiopathic Dilated Cardiomyopathy
American Journal of Surgical Pathology, 2012There are few morphologic studies on idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (CM) treated with transplant. We prospectively correlated gross, histologic, and clinical findings pertaining to hearts explanted in a 5-year period from patients with a clinical diagnosis of nonischemic CM and also correlated left ventricular diameter with preoperative ...

Phenotype and pathology of the dilated cardiomyopathy with ataxia syndrome in children
Journal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, 2021AbstractThe dilated cardiomyopathy with ataxia syndrome (DCMA) is an autosomal recessive mitochondrial disease caused by mutations in the DnaJ heat shock protein family (Hsp40) member C19 (DNAJC19) gene. DCMA or 3‐methylglutaconic aciduria type V is globally rare, but the largest number of patients in the world is found in the Hutterite population of ...

Hepatic Sinusoidal Dilatation: A Review of Causes With Imaging-Pathologic Correlation
Seminars in Ultrasound, CT and MRI, 2016Hepatic sinusoids are vascular conduits connecting the portal triad with the central vein. Multiple conditions can lead to sinusoidal dilatation and congestion with resultant stasis of blood within the lumen. The altered hemodynamics associated with hepatic sinusoidal dilatation generally result in heterogeneous enhancement of the hepatic parenchyma on

Clinical and pathological features of dilated cardiomyopathy in Holstein‐Friesian cattle
Veterinary Record, 2004Dilated cardiomyopathy is a primary disease of the heart muscle that has been reported in Holstein‐Friesian cattle worldwide in the past 20 years. Nine cases of the condition were compared in terms of their clinical and pathological characteristics with nine unaffected animals matched for age, sex and breed.

Pathologic Examination of Fetal Specimens From Dilation and Evacuation Procedures
American Journal of Clinical Pathology, 1995The systematic examination of fetal specimens obtained from dilation and evacuation (D & E) procedures with termination of pregnancy for fetal malformations and chromosomal abnormalities is described. Although a D & E procedure does not yield an intact fetus, pathologic examination of fetal parts by use of radiography, gross dissection, microscopic ...
