Impaired heart rate variability in patients with mitral annular calcification: an observational study.
OBJECTIVE The aim of the present study was to study time indices of heart rate variability (HRV) in patients with mitral annular calcification (MAC). METHODS A cross-sectional observational study was performed. Fifty patients with echocardiographic evidence of MAC and 50 age- and gender-matched control subjects without echocardiographic evidence of MAC were included. All the study participant...
متن کاملLarge Caseous Mitral Annular Calcification
A 68-year-old woman presented with exertional dyspnea, angina, and syncope. She was undergoing renal dialysis (3 times weekly, for one year) and was taking nifedipine for hypertension. Laboratory results suggested secondary hyperparathyroidism and hypercalcemia. Auscultation revealed a severe systolic murmur at the left upper parasternal border and a moderate diastolic murmur at the cardiac ape...
متن کاملMitral Annular Calcification Is Associated with Pulse Wave Velocity but Not with Augmentation Index
OBJECTIVE To investigate the possible relationship between mitral annular calcification (MAC) and arterial stiffness. SUBJECTS AND METHODS Forty-two patients (mean age 68 ± 6 years) with MAC and an age-matched control group of 41 individuals (mean age 66 ± 6 years) were studied. Arterial stiffness and wave reflections of the study population were evaluated by using applanation tonometry (Sphy...
متن کاملFunctional mitral stenosis in patients with massive mitral annular calcification.
Mitral insufficiency with mitral annular calcification occurring predominantly in elderly females has been described. We studied six patients with mitral diastolic obstruction associated with mitral annular calcification without stenosis of the mitral leaflets. Three were males and three were females, aged 43-77 years. All had significant diastolic gradients across the mitral valve (mean gradie...
متن کاملIntracardiac pseudotumor caused by mitral annular calcification.
The current report describes a rare case of a pseudotumor in the left ventricle. Transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiography demonstrated a round, echodense, mobile mass attached to the posterior mitral leaflet and annulus. At surgical exploration caseous annular calcification of the posterior mitral leaflet was diagnosed. After resection of the mass, successful mitral valvular plasty wa...
