Embolic myocardial infarctions look different: a comparison of experimental and fateful embolic lesions
Introduction According to the wavefront-phenomenon myocardial infarction scar should have a larger extent on the subendocardial than the subepicardial surface. This is important for differentiating ischemic from nonischemic lesions in late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) images. In hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy septal ablation (TASH) with injection of microparticles instead of ethanol re...
متن کاملAre multiple acute small subcortical infarctions caused by embolic mechanisms?
OBJECTIVE To seek evidence of potential embolic sources or other stroke mechanisms in patients who, on chance observation, had several apparently recent small subcortical infarcts on diffusion weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI). METHODS Patients presenting with stroke and multiple hyperintense subcortical infarcts visible on DWI were identified prospectively. Detailed clinical and radi...

increases during musical frissons, especially when associated with piloerection. It also appears that, compared with silence, music increases HR and RR, and that HR and RR are higher during pleasant than unpleasant music. New findings suggest that music also has effects on the regional activity of the heart, as reflected in changes of ECG amplitude patterns. In clinical settings, music can redu...

imaging modalities of choice for imaging the right heart. In most patients, both techniques provide complementary information and can be used in combination for almost complete evaluation of the RV. Multidetector computed tomography and nuclear imaging technique are valuable alternative modalities and add important additional information in selected cases, particularly in RV ischaemic disease. ...
متن کاملEmbolic myocardial infarction in a patient with a Fontan circulation.
Coronary artery embolism is an uncommon cause of acute myocardial infarction (MI). We present a patient with pulmonary atresia and severe right heart hypoplasia who underwent a lateral tunnel Fontan procedure in childhood and presented with an acute ST-segment elevation MI at 19 years of age. In addition to the known risk of thrombotic complications associated with a Fontan circulation, potenti...
