FOLFOX Induced Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy Treated with Impella Assist Device
Chemotherapy induced cardiotoxicity is becoming increasingly prevalent with several new agents being used recently. The incidence of Takotsubo cardiomyopathy due to 5-fluorouracil based chemotherapeutic regimens like FOLFOX is not uncommon. It is also seen with platinum based chemotherapy. Most of these patients have reversible cardiotoxicity and the cardiac function recovers within a short per...
متن کاملIncessant atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia with tachycardia-induced cardiomyopathy, biventricular thrombosis, and pulmonary emboli
Introduction Atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT) is the most common regular supraventricular arrhythmia. It typically presents with rapid and regular palpitations of abrupt onset in young adults, with a female preponderance. In patients without structural heart disease, AVNRT is largely considered to have a benign course and is rarely associated with disabling symptoms, such as...
متن کاملFulminant Myocarditis Managed by Extracorporeal Life Support (Impella® CP): A Rare Case
BACKGROUND Treating myocarditis can be difficult, as clear criteria for diagnosis and management are lacking for heterogeneous clinical presentations. CASE DESCRIPTION We report a case of a 49-year-old female who presented with cardiogenic shock and subsequent cardiac arrest. Extracorporeal life support was instituted, and after eight days with Impella CP the patient recovered and at six mont...
متن کاملPulmonary vasodilators.
Pulmonary vasodilators are an important treatment for pulmonary arterial hypertension. They reduce pulmonary artery pressure; improve hemodynamic function; alter ventilation/perfusion matching in the lungs; and improve functional quality of life, exercise tolerance, and survival in patients with severe pulmonary arterial hypertension. This paper reviews the currently available pulmonary vasodil...
متن کاملBiventricular Stress-induced Cardiomyopathy and Cardiogenic Shock Secondary to Rheumatoid Arthritis Flare
Stress-induced cardiomyopathy has a wide variety of clinical presentations ranging from angina symptoms to cardiogenic shock, as well as an array of echocardiographic findings and etiologies. We present a unique case of severe biventricular dilation with cardiogenic shock but rapid recovery within 96 hrs. Severe biventricular stressinduced cardiomyopathy secondary to acute rheumatoid arthritis ...
