High-Output Cardiac Failure Revealing Primary Plasma Cell Leukemia
High-output cardiac failure in multiple myeloma (MM) is related to arteriovenous shunting in bone infiltrate disease. We describe such a complication in a patient with primary plasma cell leukemia (pPCL) without bone disease. We review the mechanisms that could be involved. As previously described, traditional cardiac failure therapy is not effective. pPCL therapy should not be delayed.
متن کاملVein of Galen Aneurysmal Malformation and High-output Cardiac Failure in a Newborn
Background: Vein of Galen aneurysm (VGA) is the most common form of symptomatic cerebrovascular malformation in neonates. It develops in a fetus in the first trimester of pregnancy due to unknown reasons, but it is likely to have a genetic etiology. The prognosis of VGA is usually poor, particularly in newborns with heart failure due to high-flow intracerebral shunt. Surgery and endovascular em...
متن کاملLeptomeningeal metastases from primary plasma cell leukemia.
H ere, we describe a 52-year-old woman with a history of primary plasma cell leukemia (PCL) who achieved complete remission after the tandem of autologous and nonmyeloablative allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT). Nine months after the allogeneic SCT, she presented with oculomotor and trochlear nerve palsy (diplopia, ptosis of the right upper eye lid, and dilated right pupil). Physical ex...
متن کاملHigh output cardiac failure caused by multiple giant cutaneous hemangiomas.
A 59-year-old Chinese woman had multiple giant cutaneous cavernous hemangiomas on her right upper limb which resulted in high output heart failure because they presented as a large peripheral arteriovenous (A-V) fistula. Selective right subclavian arteriography showed extremely hypertrophic arteries of the patient's right arm with a tremendous blood supply to the soft tissues; neither supersele...
متن کاملHigh output heart failure.
The symptoms and signs of heart failure can occur in the setting of an increased cardiac output and has been termed 'high output heart failure'. An elevated cardiac output with clinical heart failure is associated with several diseases including chronic anaemia, systemic arterio-venous fistulae, sepsis, hypercapnia and hyperthyroidism. The underlying primary physiological problem is of reduced ...
