Left atrial transport in mitral stenosis.
Active left atrial transport was examined acutely in five patients with mitral stenosis and sinus rhythm. To observe the effect of active left atrial contraction on subsequent left ventricular output, the timing of atrial contraction with respect to ventricular contraction was varied. Atrioventricular (A-V) dissociation produced by right ventricular pacing was used to change continually the rel...
متن کاملResolution of massive left atrial appendage thrombi with rivaroxaban before balloon mitral commissurotomy in severe mitral stenosis
RATIONALE Data on nonvitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulant being used for the treatment of LAA thrombi are limited only in nonvalvular atrial fibrillation. There are no data on the antithrombotic efficacy and safety of nonvitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulant in the resolution of left atrial appendage (LAA) thrombi in patients with rheumatic mitral stenosis. PATIENT CONCERNS A 49-year-old...
متن کاملLeft Atrial Myxoma Mimicking Mitral Stenosis
Cardiac myxoma is a benign (non-malignant) neoplasm that represents the most common primary tumour of the heart. We present the case of a 36 year old woman with background hypertension who presented with features of left ventricular failure and seizures, and was found during transthoracic echocardiography to have left atrial myxoma protruding through the mitral valve orifice. She subsequently h...
متن کاملLeft atrial appendage ostial stenosis associated with rheumatic mitral stenosis \
Isolated left atrial appendage (LAA) stenosis is a very rare entity that is almost always detected coincidentally with transesophageal echocardiography (TEE). The clinical consequences of this condition are still unknown, but thrombus formation is likely to occur in the narrowed area. A 51-year-old female was admitted to an outpatient clinic due to the complaint of dizziness. Physical examinati...
متن کاملPing-Pong Mitral Stenosis: Left Atrial Myxoma With Mitral Stenosis and Pulmonary Hypertension in an Octogenarian
Left atrial (LA) myxoma presenting with symptoms of mitral stenosis in elderly males is very rare accounting for 10% of the cases. We report an 80-year-old male who presented with symptoms of orthopnea and palpitations and was subsequently found to have a large LA myxoma obstructing the mitral valve and causing pulmonary hypertension (PHT).
