Acute right-sided heart failure caused by Neisseria meningitidis.
Meningococcal myocarditis is a rarely diagnosed infection and could be the consequence of primary invasive infection or late immunologic complications. An unusual presentation of meningococcemia in an immunocompetent adult is described, with Neisseria meningitidis identified as the cause of selective right-sided heart failure in a case of acute myocarditis.

Zapalenie mięśnia sercowego jest chorobą, która może prowadzić do ciężkiej niewydolności serca (HF). Objawy ze strony układu sercowo-naczyniowego zazwyczaj są poprzedzone infekcją. Procesy autoimmunologiczne toczące się w miokardium prowadzą do uszkodzenia kardiomiocytów i aktywacji wielu procesów zapalnych. Rozpoznanie ustala się na podstawie danych z wywiadu, badania przedmiotowego i badań ob...
متن کاملPulmonary hypertension secondary to pulmonary veno-occlusive disease complicated by right heart failure, hypotension and acute kidney injury
Pulmonary veno-occlusive disease (PVOD) is rare condition which can lead to severe pulmonary hypertension, right ventricular dysfunction, and cardiopulmonary failure. The diagnosis of PVOD can be challenging due to its nonspecific symptoms and its similarity to idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension and interstitial lung disease in terms of diagnostic findings. This case describes a 57 year...
متن کاملPulmonary embolism in heart failure.
Case Presentation: A 71-year-old man with coronary artery disease, left ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction (ejection fraction, 30%), and recent admission for heart failure presented with acute dyspnea and hypoxemia. A pro-brain–type natriuretic peptide level was elevated at 2450 pg/mL (normal 350 pg/mL). Chest x-ray demonstrated cardiomegaly and small bilateral pleural effusions. After an ho...
متن کاملEffects of acute and chronic digoxin administration in dogs with right-sided congestive heart failure produced by pulmonary artery constriction.
Acute and chronic responses to digoxin have been studied in dogs with cardiac failure secondary to constriction of the pulmonary artery. Cardiovascular and renal hemoclynamic function improved and, frequently, a striking increase in sodium (Na) excretion resulted. The data suggest a direct myocardial action of digoxin and provide evidence of impaired myocardial function similar to that observed...
