Right atrial lipoma resection and partial reconstruction using bovine pericardium.
The primary heart tumors have an incidence varying from 0.001% to 0.28% of all tumors, reported in necropsies series. Lipoma consists of a benign tumour corresponding to about 8% of all primary heart tumors. When present, the symptoms are related to the size and location of such tumor. We report a case of a 27-year-old man with a lipoma in the right atrium who underwent surgical treatment with ...
متن کاملStraddling right atrioventricular valves in atrioventricular discordance.
Four hearts are described in which the right atrioventricular valve, draining a morphologically right atrium, straddled and overrode a septum between a right-sided chamber of left ventricular morphology and a left-sided chamber of right ventricular morphology. The degree of override varied between the straddling valve and was committed by 20-45% to the morphologically right ventricle. The ventr...
متن کاملReconstruction of delayed scleral flap melting with bovine pericardium after trabeculectomy with mitomycin C
Aim: To present a challenging case of hypotony after trabeculectomy and its treatment. Case description: A 22-year-old woman with juvenile glaucoma underwent a conventional trabeculectomy with mitomycin C on the right eye (OD). In the immediate postoperative period, we observed a hyperfiltration bleb with hypotony refractory to conservative measures leading to hypotony maculopathy. A surgical r...
متن کاملAlkaline phosphatase activity of glutaraldehyde-treated bovine pericardium used in bioprosthetic cardiac valves.
Bioprosthetic valves fail frequently because of pathological mineralization, a process that begins in cell remnants of the glutaraldehyde (GLUT) fixed tissue. Other pathological cardiovascular calcification and physiological mineralization in skeletal/dental tissues are both largely initiated in cell-derived membranous structures (often called "matrix vesicles"), and the enzyme alkaline phospha...
متن کاملBallooning deformity (mucoid degeneration) of atrioventricular valves.
In the past three years several reports have drawn attention to a type of mitral incompetence associated with a peculiar deformity of the mitral valve. This is characterized by an increase in area of the affected leaflets which become voluminous and prolapse into the atrium in systole. Various names or descriptions have been applied to the condition, based either on pathological findings (descr...
