Red flags to diagnose infiltrative cardiomyopathies

Российский кардиологический журнал, 2023
Infiltrative cardiomyopathies are a group of diseases characterized by the deposition of abnormal substances in heart tissues, which leads to thickening of the walls or dilation of chambers with a secondary decrease in wall thickness and the development ...

Senile Systemic Amyloidosis: An Underdiagnosed Disease [PDF]

, 2017
Senile systemic amyloidosis is caused by a non-mutated form of transthyretin with the heart being the major organ involved. This infiltrative cardiomyopathy usually presents as slowly progressive heart failure.

Screening approaches to cardiac amyloidosis in different clinical settings: Current practice and future perspectives

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
Cardiac amyloidosis is a serious and progressive infiltrative disease caused by the deposition of amyloid fibrils in the heart. In the last years, a significant increase in the diagnosis rate has been observed owing to a greater awareness of its broad ...

The Role of Multi-modality Imaging in the Diagnosis of Cardiac Amyloidosis: A Focused Update

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2020
Cardiac amyloidosis (CA) is a unique disease entity involving an infiltrative process, typically resulting in a restrictive cardiomyopathy with diastolic heart failure that ultimately progresses to systolic heart failure. The two most common subtypes are

Infiltrative Diseases of the Heart

Reviews in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2010
Infiltrative diseases targeting the cardiovascular system are a subgroup of restrictive cardiomyopathies. An early diagnosis is critical in initiating therapy to mitigate the deleterious effects of the pathologic process underlying these forms of cardiomyopathies. Infiltrative cardiac disease is rare and therefore often underdiagnosed.

Mitral and tricuspid stenosis caused by light chain cardiac amyloid deposition

ESC Heart Failure, 2020
Cardiac amyloidosis results in an infiltrative restrictive cardiomyopathy, with a number of characteristic features: biventricular hypertrophy, abnormal myocardial global longitudinal strain with relative apical sparing, biatrial dilation, and small ...

Emerging from the Darkness. Sudden Cardiac Death in Cardiac Amyloidosis

Reviews in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
Cardiac amyloidosis (CA) manifests as infiltrative cardiomyopathy with a hypertrophic pattern, usually presenting with heart failure with a preserved ejection fraction. In addition, degenerative valvular heart disease, particularly severe aortic stenosis,

Role of Cardiac Magnetic Resonance in the Diagnosis of Infiltrative, Hypertrophic, and Arrhythmogenic Cardiomyopathies

Frontiers in Bioscience-Scholar, 2022
Cardiac magnetic resonance has become a reliable imaging modality providing structural and functional data, and fundamental information about tissue composition. Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging with late gadolinium enhancement, T1-mapping, T2-mapping,

Formalin infiltration of ductus arteriosus in cyanotic congenital heart disease. [PDF]

Heart, 1981
Formalin infiltration of the ductus arteriosus was performed in 13 neonates with pulmonary atresia (three with ventricular septal defect, two with tricuspid atresia, and eight with intact ventricular septum, one of whom had Ebstein's anomaly) in an attempt to maintain duct patency.

Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging in infiltrative cardiomyopathy

Journal of the Indian Academy of Echocardiography & Cardiovascular Imaging, 2019
Infiltrative cardiomyopathies are a wide spectrum of disorders characterized by deposition of abnormal substances in the myocardium. These have a varied etiology and can be idiopathic, familial, or secondary to systemic disorders.
