Clinical Anatomy of the Left and Right Atrial Appendages in Humans: Comparative and Developmental Perspective

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Human atrial chambers derive from distinct embryonic anlagens, the original embryonic atria gradually transforming into the so‐called auricles, or atrial appendages. This study quantifies macroscopic variations in pectinate muscle architecture in human atrial appendages and evaluates their visualization using clinical imaging modalities.

Cine magnetic resonance imaging predicts thrombus adhesion in metastatic renal cell carcinoma with an inferior vena cava tumor thrombus: A case of pathological complete response with pembrolizumab plus lenvatinib

IJU Case Reports
Introduction Renal cell carcinoma with an inferior vena cava tumor thrombus is a challenging disease that requires a multimodal treatment approach. Pembrolizumab plus lenvatinib has displayed promising efficacy in metastatic renal cell carcinoma.

Duplication of the Inferior Vena Cava [PDF]

Journal of Surgical Case Reports, 2011
We highlight the case of a double Inferior Vena Cava (IVC) encountered in a multi-visceral recovery operation on a deceased donor. In such cases pre-operative abdominal cross sectional imaging is usually not available hence the procurement surgeon needs to rely on vigilance and awareness of other potential anatomical variations that are associated with

Observations on Two Previously Unreported Anatomical Factors Relating to the Esophagogastric Junction

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The esophagogastric junction (EGJ) is the anatomical zone where the esophagus ends and the stomach begins. Its competence in preventing gastro‐esophageal reflux has been shown to depend on a number of factors which have been extensively investigated and widely accepted.

Efficacy of Everolimus for Treating Renal Angiomyolipoma with Inferior Vena Cava Thrombus Associated with Tuberous Sclerosis: A Case Report

Urology Case Reports, 2017
Here we report a case of 57-year-old woman with renal angiomyolipoma associated with tuberous sclerosis complex involving inferior vena cava thrombus. We could perform less invasive nephrectomy with thrombectomy because everolimus administration reduced ...

MELD score predicts outcomes in patients with advanced heart failure: A longitudinal evaluation

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 839-847, April 2025.
Abstract Aims Advanced heart failure (AHF) is characterized by recurrent episodes of haemodynamic instability and frequent hospitalizations, leading to a progressive decline in quality of life and high mortality rates. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effect of the model for end‐stage liver disease (MELD) score and its variations in ...

Clinical outcomes of inferior vena cava filter in complicated pulmonary embolism

Pulmonary Circulation, 2019
Background: Previous observational studies suggest that inferior vena cava filter placement in pulmonary embolism patients complicated with congestive heart failure, mechanical ventilation, and shock may have a mortality benefit. We sought to analyze the

Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction worsens prognosis in patients with heart failure due to dilated cardiomyopathy

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1183-1193, April 2025.
Abstract Aims The prognostic significance of left ventricular (LV) diastolic dysfunction (LVDD) severity in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) remains uncertain. This study aimed to evaluate the association of LVDD severity and elevated left atrial pressure (eLAP) with patient outcomes in stable, non‐acutely decompensated patients with DCM ...
