Metal through metal: pacing lead across a mechanical tricuspid valve.
No full textWe present the case of a patient with a mechanical tricuspid valve prosthesis who
underwent placement of a pacemaker lead across the tricuspid valve
The A-Dip of Aortic Regurgitation.
No full textCareful analysis of the aortic regurgitation (AR) Doppler signal often provides
important information regarding left heart hemodynamics. Here we illustrate a
pattern on the AR signal, known as the A-dip that suggests the presence of
elevated LVEDP
Heart Failure Following Creation of an Arteriovenous Fistula for Hemodialysis.
No full textCareful analysis of the Doppler profile, performance of maneuvers during image
acquisition, and comparison of data with prior studies are basic tools that allow
us to provide useful clinical information and improved diagnostic accuracy. Here,
we discuss a patient in whom a thorough evaluation of the Doppler pattern at rest
and during maneuvers and the identification of temporal changes in cardiac
hemodynamics helped establish a diagnosis
Elevated Right Ventricular End-Diastolic Pressure by Doppler Echocardiography-A Case Report.
No full textCareful analysis of the right-sided Doppler signals provides important data
regarding right heart hemodynamics. Here, we illustrate the value of the combined
analysis of flow across the hepatic vein, tricuspid valve, and pulmonary valve
for the diagnosis of elevated right ventricular end-diastolic pressure
A rare case of giant congenital left atrial appendage aneurysm in a 4-month-old child.
No full textAneurysm of the left atrial appendage is a rare pathological condition,
especially during infancy. We describe the case of a 4-month-old child with a
giant congenital aneurysm of the left atrial appendage
