Bortezomib induced reversible left ventricular systolic dysfunction: A case report and review of literature
Bortezomib is a reversible proteasome inhibitor, currently approved by US FDA for use in multiple myeloma and mantle cell lymphoma. Bortezomib has been shown to cause new onset and exacerbation of underlying congestive cardiac failure (CHF) in some case reports. Studies on human tissue have shown dysregulation of ubiquitin proteasome system (UPS) in cardiac tissues in end stage heart failure. R...
متن کاملLeft Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction in Asymptomatic Black Hypertensive Subjects.
BACKGROUND Hypertension has been established as one of the commonest causes of heart failure especially in sub-Saharan Africa. We have previously observed a high prevalence of left ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction in hypertensive heart failure patients in Nigeria despite a low prevalence of ischemic heart disease. The present study was, therefore, undertaken to assess the prevalence of asy...
متن کاملLeft ventricular systolic dysfunction in a patient with accidental hypothermia: a case report

CASE PRESENTATION This report describes the case of an 88-year-old Japanese man found in a coma and presenting with heart failure associated with hypothermia. He experienced sinus arrest, junctional rhythm and left ventricular systolic dysfunction wit...
متن کاملAcute, reversible left ventricular dysfunction in status asthmaticus.
Three cases of rapidly reversible severe myocardial depression are described in patients with status asthmaticus. Initial echocardiograms obtained within 1 day of hospital admission revealed global left ventricular hypokinesis with ejection fractions of 11 to 34%. Follow-up echocardiograms obtained only 3 to 8 days later revealed marked improvement of left ventricular function. Possible mechani...
متن کاملLymphoma presenting as severe left ventricular systolic dysfunction: a case report.
Lymphoma involving the heart is rare. This is a case report on non-Hodgkin lymphoma where the patient presented for the first time with heart failure and severe left ventricular systolic dysfunction due to lymphoma infiltrating the heart muscle and had simultaneous bilateral involvement of kidneys. This type of presentation has never been described in world literature and is the first reported ...
