SUPRAVALVAR AORTIC STENOSIS IN CHILDREN REPORT OF THIRTEEN CASES
During 15 years from 1975 to 1990, thirteen cases of supravalvar aortic stenosis were admitted at the pediatrics department of Shahid Rajai Heart Hospital, Tehran. All patients were subjected to cardiac catheterization and a angiocardiography. Patients ranged in age from 3.5 years to 14 years with a mean of 8.7 years. Seventy seven percent of childen were male. Eight cases (61.5%) had Wil...
متن کاملRight coronary artery stenosis unmasking ischemia in a patient with bilateral coronary pulmonary fistulas
Introduction Coronary artery fistulas (CAF) are congenital or acquired formations between the coronary arteries and cardiac chambers or other vascular structures such as the vena cava, pulmonary artery, or veins [1]. Most of these are found incidentally during angiography [2]. Fistulas account for half of all coronary anomalies and are present in 0.002% of the general population. Coronary to pu...
متن کاملAnoxic cell core can promote necrotic cell death in cardiomyocytes at physiological extracellular PO2.
The physical law of diffusion imposes O2 concentration gradients from the plasma membrane to the center of the cell. The present study was undertaken to determine how such intracellular radial gradients of O2 affect the fate of isolated single cardiomyocytes. In single rat cardiomyocytes, mitochondrial respiration was moderately elevated by an oxidative phosphorylation uncoupler to augment the ...
متن کاملUnreliable assessment of necrotic core by virtual histology intravascular ultrasound in porcine coronary artery disease.
BACKGROUND Intravascular ultrasound-derived virtual histology (VH IVUS) is used increasingly in clinical research to assess composition and vulnerability of coronary atherosclerotic lesions. However, the ability of VH IVUS to quantify individual plaque components, in particular the size of the destabilizing necrotic core, has never been validated. We tested for correlation between VH IVUS necro...
متن کاملPeak cap stress calculations in coronary atherosclerotic plaques with an incomplete necrotic core geometry
BACKGROUND Stress calculations in atherosclerotic coronary vulnerable plaques can aid in predicting coronary cap rupture. In vivo plaque geometry and composition of coronary arteries can merely be obtained via intravascular imaging. Only optical driven imaging techniques have sufficient resolution to visualize the fibrous cap, but due to limited penetration depth deeper components such as the b...
