[Left ventricular papillary fibroelastoma].
We evaluated the case of a patient with Papillary Fibroelastoma (PFE) that presented embolization to the upper right limb. The patient was submitted to percutaneous embolectomy, with fragment removal. The diagnosis was confirmed by transthoracic echocardiogram and anatomopathological analysis of the fragment. The patient chose to undergo the conservative clinical treatment and the follow-up has...
متن کاملLeft ventricular apex occluder. Description of a Ventricular Partitioning Device.
Description Implant device and delivery system. The Ventricular Partitioning Device (VPD) is an intraventricular Implant that is deployed in the Left Ventricle (LV) in patients with regional wall motion abnormalities following myocardial infarction (MI). The implant device is delivered via a guiding catheter and delivery system introduced percutaneously from the femoral artery by the standard t...
متن کاملDouble primary left ventricular and aortic valve papillary fibroelastoma.
Papillary fibroelastomas of the heart are relatively rare benign tumors and although they can be symptom free, symptoms such as cerebral ischemia and cardiac infarction can be lethal. It is important to diagnose this tumor using echocardiography, because lethal embolisms can be prevented by surgical resection. Recurrence of this tumor has not been reported and multiple tumors are rare. The pres...
متن کاملLeft atrial fibroelastoma.
We describe a 67-year-old man with a history of stroke who was found to have a mass at the left atrial ridge, at the free wall of the left atrium between the left atrial appendage and the pulmonary vein. The mass was removed surgically and pathological analysis showed fibroelastoma. A literature search showed that fibroelastoma in the left atrial ridge frequently causes embolic stroke.
متن کاملLeft ventricular apex ablation decreases the upper limit of vulnerability.
BACKGROUND After shocks with an approximately 50% probability of success for the upper limit of vulnerability (ULV(50)) of strength, the first few activations appear focally on the epicardium at almost the same site at the left ventricular (LV) apex in both successful and failed induction of ventricular fibrillation (VF). We tested the hypothesis that subendocardial ablation at this early site ...
