Patient-specific fluid simulation of transcatheter mitral valve replacement in mitral annulus calcification

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
IntroductionTranscatheter mitral valve replacement is a promising alternative to open-heart surgery in elderly patients. Patients with severe mitral annulus calcification (MAC) are a particularly high-risk population, where postprocedural complications ...

Giant Cardiac Rhabdomyoma with Mixed Atrial Tachycardia and Nonsustained Ventricular Tachycardia in a Newborn with Tuberous Sclerosis

The Ewha Medical Journal, 2022
Cardiac rhabdomyomas are typically presented in the tuberous sclerosis. Although benign and often associated with spontaneous regression, in rare circumstances huge mass size and critical location can lead to heart failure, ventricular outflow tract ...

Apical ballooning syndrome complicated by acute severe mitral regurgitation with left ventricular outflow obstruction – Case report

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2007
Background Apical ballooning syndrome (or Takotsubo cardiomyopathy) is a syndrome of transient left ventricular apical ballooning. Although first described in Japanese patients, it is now well reported in the Caucasian population. The syndrome mimicks an

New experimental model of acute aqueductal blockage in cats: effects on cerebrospinal fluid pressure and the size of brain ventricles [PDF]

, 2009
It is generally assumed that cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is secreted in the brain ventricles, and so after an acute blockage of the aqueduct of Sylvius an increase in the ventricular CSF pressure and dilation of isolated ventricles may be expected. We have
