Abstract:
Primary systemic amyloidosis is a rare disease. It primarily involves kidney, heart, peripheral nerves and liver. Intracutaneous hemorrhage manifesting in the form of petechiae, purpura and ecchymoses due to infiltration of blood vessel walls by amyloid deposits are the most common skin lesions. We report a case of primary systemic amyloidosis with multiple, non-itchy, papular lesions in lower eyelids and lower chest wall bilaterally. Diagnosis was confirmed in this case by biopsy of skin lesions using congo red staining. Papular eruptions as seen in index patient are relatively uncommon form

Abstract:
AL cardiac amyloidosis is a relatively rare disorder that belongs to the group of infiltrative cardiomyopathies. Diagnosis of primary amyloidosis is challenging due to many unspecific symptoms and sings, which often leads to late diagnosis when treatment options are limited. Primary amyloidosis particularly needs to be excluded in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction. Therapy in cardiac amyloidosis has to main vectors: 1) chemotherapy to eliminate amyloidogenic plasmatic cells 2) heart failure treatment. The main challenge for cardiologists is to support hemodynamics un

Abstract:
Primary mediastinal B-cell lymphoma (PMBCL) is an uncommon aggressive subset of diffuse large B-cell lymphomas. Although PMBCL frequently spreads locally from the thymus into the pleura or pericardium, it rarely invades directly through the heart. Herein, we report a case of a young Mexican female diagnosed with PMBCL with clear infiltration of lymphoma through the cardiac wall and into the right atrium and tricuspid valve leading to tricuspid regurgitation. This was demonstrated by cardiac MRI and transthoracic echocardiogram. In addition, cardiac MRI and CT scan of the chest revealed the lar

Nevertheless, no mention about increased ACE levels in extracerebral primary systemic amyloidosis is available.

Abstract:
Cardiac preconditioning (PC) and postconditioning (PoC) are powerful measures against the consequences of myocardial ischemia and reperfusion (I/R) injury. Mannitol—a hyperosmolar solution—is clinically used for treatment of intracranial and intraocular pressure or promotion of diuresis in renal failure. Next to these clinical indications, different organ-protective properties—e.g., perioperative neuroprotection—are described. However, whether Mannitol also confers cardioprotection via a pre- and/or postconditioning stimulus, possibly reducing consequences of I/R injury, remains to be seen. Th

Abstract:
Abstract Light chain (AL) amyloidosis is characterized by the extracellular deposition of clonal light chain-derived amyloid fibrils in various tissues. Kidneys and heart are most commonly affected; clinically non detectable deposits in other tissues may also result in significant dysfunction. Amyloid deposits within the wall of the arteries or direct toxicity of light chains may cause arterial dysfunction in patients with AL amyloidosis, with cardiovascular consequences. Endothelial dysfunction, subclinical atherosclerosis of the carotid arteries and stiffening of the arterial tree are common

Background:Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a progressive autoimmune disease affecting the skin as well as internal organs, including the heart. A few studies have identified a subclinical heart involvement in patients with no pulmonary hypertension. Changes in myocardial deformation are consistent with the idea of SSc-related cardiomyopathy as a primary condition affecting the heart globally through microvascular dysfunction and subsequent myocardial fibrosis.Objectives:The aim of the present study is to describe the progression of myocardial deformation in patients with SSc and no overt cardiac d

Abstract:
Non-ischemic cardiomyopathies are defined as either primary or secondary diseases of the myocardium resulting in cardiac dysfunction. While primary cardiomyopathies are confined to the heart and can be genetic or acquired, secondary cardiomyopathies show involvement of the heart as a manifestation of an underlying systemic disease including metabolic, inflammatory, granulomatous, infectious, or autoimmune entities. Non-ischemic cardiomyopathies are currently classified as hypertrophic, dilated, restrictive, or unclassifiable, including left ventricular non-compaction. Cardiovascular Magnetic R

Abstract:
Introduction: Heart failure (HF) is a common ED presentation that is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Despite recent evidence and recommendations for early palliative care (PC) involvement in these patients, they are still significantly under-served by PC services, often resulting in multiple ED visits. We sought to evaluate use of PC services in patients with HF presenting to the ED. Secondary objectives of the study were to investigate: 1) one year mortality, ED visits, and admissions; 2) application of a novel palliative care referral score. Methods: We conducted a healt

Abstract:
Rheumatic heart disease is the primary cause of valvular heart disease in India and other Southeast Asian countries. The disease is quite different from that seen in France, USA, and Australia. Poverty, malnutrition, and delayed referral affect the outcomes. Rheumatic heart disease can affect all four heart valves, mitral being the most common, aortic second, tricuspid next, and finally the pulmonary valve. The combinations of mitral and aortic, mitral and tricuspid, and all three valves are the next in frequency. Acute rheumatic fever usually manifests as quadrivalvular involvement. However,

Heart failure (HF) is a clinical syndrome defined by specific symptoms and signs due to structural and/or functional heart abnormalities, which lead to inadequate cardiac output and/or increased intraventricular filling pressure. Importantly, HF becomes progressively a multisystemic disease.

Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is an autoimmune hypercoagulable disorder characterized by thrombophilia, vascular thrombosis, and recurrent abortions associated with persistent antiphospholipid antibodies. APS may exist in its primary form, or more commonly is found to be associated with variety of rheumatic disorders, such as systemic lupus erythematosus. Cardiac involvement is not an uncommon complication in primary antiphospholipid patients. Libman-Sacks lesions are typically small, sessile, and wart-like, varying in size from 1-4 mm.
