Familial aneurysms of the interventricular septum.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Congenital aneurysms of the interventricular septum were found in a 29 year old man and his four year old son. Both were symptom free. In both, M mode and cross sectional echocardiography showed an aneurysm in the mid-muscular trabecular portion of the ventricular septum with considerable paradoxical motion of the aneurysmal segment. Otherwise the chamber dimensions, intracardiac structures, and cardiac function were normal for age. Congenital aneurysm of the interventricular septum is rare and these familial cases may be unique.

Metastatic tumors to the heart unlike primary cardiac tumors are not rare. Despite its frequency, cardiac metastasis is commonly detected only during autopsy as the symptoms of disseminated metastasis prevail over symptoms caused by cardiac metastasis and hence is overlooked most of the time. Tumors more commonly found metastasizing to the heart are malignancies of lung, breast, esophagus, lymp...

INTRODUCTION Sinus of Valsalva aneurysms (SVAs) constitute about 1% of congenital cardiac anomalies and occur most commonly in patients of Asian origin. It is most commonly described in the right sinus (70%), to a lesser degree in the non-coronary, and least common in the left sinus. These aneurysms can cause aortic regurgitation, cardiac ischemia and arrhythmias. They can rupture into the righ...

Congenital aneurysms of the muscular interventricular septum without ventricularseptal defect are extremely rare. We describe a five-month-old girl patient with congenital aneurysm, pathological ST changes and minimal right ventricular outflow tract obstruction. The electrocardiogram showed Wolf-Parkinson-White syndrome, pathological ST changes and combined ventricular hypertrophy criteria. The...
