RIGHT ATRIAL MYXOMA
A case of right atrial myxoma in a 5 year old male is presented. The Patient was admitted in the pediatric department with systemic manifestations. Myxoma was incidentally diagnosed.
متن کاملLeft atrial volume measurements before and after left atrial ablation for the treatment of atrial fibrillation
Background Recent studies have demonstrated the usefulness of CMR imaging in the management of patients with cardiac arrhythmia. CMR imaging allows for more accurate measurement of various cardiac dimensions. Significant changes in LA volumes have previously been documented in patients who have undergone ablation therapy. However, these studies have relied on simple two dimensional measurement ...
متن کاملA Semi-Automated Algorithm for Segmentation of the Left Atrial Appendage Landing Zone: Application in Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion Procedures
Background: Mechanical occlusion of the Left atrial appendage (LAA) using a purpose-built device has emerged as an effective prophylactic treatment in patients with atrial fibrillation at risk of stroke and a contraindication for anticoagulation. A crucial step in procedural planning is the choice of the device size. This is currently based on the manual analysis of the “Device Landing Zone” fr...
متن کاملpersistent isolated right atrial standstill associated with left atrial tachycardia
introduction atrial standstill is a rare condition, characterized by absence of atrial electrical and mechanical activity evident in surface electrocardiography echocardiography, or fluoroscopy, which is associated with unresponsiveness of atria to maximal output electrical stimulation. this condition can be present with thromboembolic complication, low cardiac output, and sometimes palpitation...
متن کاملLeft atrial epicardial adiposity and atrial fibrillation.
BACKGROUND Atrial fibrillation (AF) has been linked to inflammatory factors and obesity. Epicardial fat is a source of several inflammatory mediators related to the development of coronary artery disease. We hypothesized that periatrial fat may have a similar role in the development of AF. METHODS AND RESULTS Left atrium (LA) epicardial fat pad thickness was measured in consecutive cardiac CT...
