Multi-modality imaging of a left atrial myxoma
Objectives Although echocardiography has traditionally been used to diagnose myxoma, invasive or non-invasive coronary angiography can be useful diagnostic tool before surgery. Methods We present a case of an angiographically detected left atrial myxoma feeding from the left circumflex coronary artery. Results The patient underwent open-heart surgery to remove the left atrial myxoma. After ...
متن کاملNon ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction in a Patient with Supravalvular Aortic Stenosis. Role of Multi-Modality Imaging.
Dear Editor, Supravalvular aortic stenosis (SVAS) is a congenital narrowing of the ascending aorta above the level of sinus of Valsalva. It is most often commonly associated with William’s syndrome although it can arise without syndromic associations as well.1,2 Left main coronary artery (LMCA) occlusion or stenosis has been seen to be associated with the condition, and can be a cause of sudden...
متن کاملleft atrial and left atrial appendage mass diagnosed by cardiac imaging: a case report
introduction left atrial thrombi are present in one third of patients with severe rheumatic mitral stenosis and atrial fibrillation. a left atrial mass can be diagnosed as a thrombus by transthoracic echocardiography in the presence of the predisposing factors for a thrombus such as mitral stenosis and atrial fibrillation. the sensitivity of transthoracic echocardiography for detecting left atr...
متن کاملLeft Atrial Volume and Mortality in Patients With Aortic Stenosis
BACKGROUND Left atrium (LA) enlargement is common in patients with aortic stenosis (AS), yet its prognostic implications are unclear. This study investigates the value of left atrial volume (LAV) and LAV normalized to body size for predicting mortality in AS. METHODS AND RESULTS We included 1351 patients with AS in sinus rhythm at diagnosis and analyzed the occurrence of all-cause death durin...
