Disrupted Slit-Robo signalling results in membranous ventricular septum defects and bicuspid aortic valves. [PDF]
The mesenchymal cushions lining the early embryonic heart undergo complex remodelling to form the membranous ventricular septum as well as the atrioventricular and semilunar valves in later life.

Coexistence of Atrioventricular Nodal Reentrant Tachycardia and Idiopathic Left Ventricular Outflow-Tract Tachycardia [PDF]
Double tachycardia is a relatively rare condition. We describe a 21 year old woman with history of frequent palpitations. In one of these episodes, she had wide complex tachycardia with right bundle branch and inferior axis morphology.

Automatic segmentation of the left ventricle cavity and myocardium in MRI data [PDF]
A novel approach for the automatic segmentation has been developed to extract the epi-cardium and endo-cardium boundaries of the left ventricle (lv) of the heart. The developed segmentation scheme takes multi-slice and multi-phase magnetic resonance (MR)

Left ventricular clefts - incidental finding or pathologic sign of Wilson's disease? [PDF]
Background: Wilson’s disease is an inherited autosomal recessive multi-systemic disorder characterized by reduced excretion and consequently excessive accumulation of copper in different organs, such as the heart. Results: In a prospective controlled

Left Ventricular Diverticulum of the Interventricular Septum
In this study, we report a case of a healthy, 25‑year‑old male patient with presyncope during a football match divergent blood pressure, and a grade 3/6 aortic diastolic murmur. The echocardiogram showed a rounded structure in the basal area of the interventricular septum adjacent to the aortic valve, which causes inadequate commissural support ...

A novel closed-chest porcine model of chronic ischemic heart failure suitable for experimental research in cardiovascular disease [PDF]
Cardiac pathologies are among the leading causes of mortality and morbidity in industrialized countries, with myocardial infarction (MI) representing one of the major conditions leading to heart failure (HF).

Cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure: from the case to review of literature [PDF]
In response to an increased workload due to physiological or pathological stimuli, the heart may undergo a process of growth with increased muscle mass called cardiac hypertrophy. It is a particular mechanism of long term compensation used by the heart
