This 30-year-old male patient attended the emergency department because of dizziness accompanied by selfassessed regular pulse rates of 30–40 bpm. Physical examination was normal but cardiac auscultation revealed frequent premature beats. A subsequent 12-lead ECG documented the arrhythmia (Fig. 1). Similar episodes had occurred 12 months ago but thorough cardiac evaluation, including echocardio...
Cardiac tumors are an unusual cause of acute limb ischemia. Myxomas are the most frequent benign tumors and most are symptomatic. Embolization occurs in 30% to 40% of patients with myxomas, with cerebral arteries being the most common destination. We present the case of a 73-year-old woman with a history of hypertension who came to the emergency department due to pain and sudden onset of coldne...
A 5 year-old spayed female Cavalier King Charles Spaniel was presented after a 3- to 5-day onset of severe respiratory distress. The dog also had a history of several episodes of syncope prior to presentation. A comprehensive diagnostic investigation revealed a midsystolic click sound on cardiac auscultation, signs of left sided cardiac enlargement in ECG and thoracic radiography, mitral valvul...

The aim of this study was to discuss the experience of building an educational software about the auscultation of breathing sounds. In the process, Lev Semenovic Vygotsky's pedagogic theoretical framework was used, and the content was delimited so as to encompass the auscultation method step by step. The objective of the auscultation was to classify normal and strange sounds and their particula...
Mitral valve prolapse (MVP) is the most frequent cause of primary mitral regurgitation in western countries. The diagnosis can be suspected from cardiac auscultation in some cases but is mostly confirmed by echocardiography. MVP has been for long suspected of being more than a benign disease. Nonspecific symptoms and major consequences, such as symptomatic severe mitral regurgitation, infective...
