Intravascular Ultrasonography of an Adolescent Boy with a Coronary Artery Aneurysm Due to Kawasaki Disease 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A 14-year-old boy developed coronary aneurysms during the course of Kawasaki disease. The vessel wall morphology of the coronary
arteries was assessed by intravascular ultrasound imaging (IVUS). There was intimal thickening proximal to, within, and distal
to a large coronary aneurysm in the left anterior descending coronary artery only 18 months after the acute onset of Kawasaki
disease. Intimal thickening without calcification is a new IVUS finding within a persistent coronary aneurysm. It may indicate
that the healing process, via cell proliferation is continuing, with the risk of causing a stenosis. 相似文献

Acute myocardial infarction developed in a 14-year-old girl, ten years after surgical repair of a coronary artery fistula.
Angiography revealed fresh thrombus in the left anterior descending branch of the left coronary artery. The thrombus probably
developed in the residual cul-de-sac of the occluded fistula. A procedure to abolish the cul-de-sac was then performed. 相似文献

Cardiac ventricular aneurysms are anomalous developments that are multifactorial in origin. Few pediatric cases have been
cited. The majority of the cited cases have had negative consequences. We report an asymptomatic boy with an aneurysm incidentally
found, and his identical twin brother with no evidence of aneurysm. 相似文献

An 11-year-old boy presented with myocardial ischemia and was found to have an aberrant left main coronary artery from the
right sinus of Valsalva coursing between the aorta and pulmonary artery, as well as a small arteriovenous malformation from
a right atrial branch of the right coronary artery to the right atrium. Distinctive echocardiographic findings were supported
by angiographic and magnetic resonance imaging studies. Treadmill and scintigraphic stress testing were normal. Corrective
surgery was accomplished by a modified technique to unroof the intramural proximal course of the left coronary artery, without
postoperative complications. The anatomy and pathophysiology of this rare coronary lesion are reviewed. 相似文献

A neonate developed severe congestive heart failure secondary to a congenital coronary artery fistula requiring emergent
surgery. Intraoperative transesophageal echocardiogaphy helped guide successful emergent closure of the fistula without complications. 相似文献

We describe a 22-year-old woman with a history of unrepaired pulmonary atresia with ventricular septal defect. This woman
was interesting in that her main pulmonary artery and right pulmonary artery arose from the left main coronary artery. She
developed significant pulmonary hypertension in addition to isolation of the left pulmonary artery following ductal closure,
subsequent to which the majority of her pulmonary blood flow was coronary dependent. 相似文献

We measured the coronary flow reserve in a 13-year-old girl with the rare anomaly of an absent left circumflex coronary artery.
Although the coronary flow volume of the right coronary artery was at the same level as that of the left anterior descending
coronary artery, the coronary flow reserve of the patient's right coronary artery was depressed without stenotic lesion, and
it was less than the level of −2 standard deviation (SD) of the right coronary artery preponderance cases. 相似文献

The association of anomalous left coronary artery with congenital heart disease is a rare occurrence. Seven cases of anomalous
left coronary artery associated with tetralogy of Fallot have been reported in the literature. We report a unique case with
severe mitral valve abnormality that precluded standard surgical repair. 相似文献

The case reported herein demonstrates the rare association of double-outlet right ventricle (tetralogy of Fallot type) with
anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery. It is the first reported successful total surgical
repair in an infant. 相似文献

Ventriculo-coronary arterial connections are frequently observed in pulmonary atresia with intact interventricular septum.
Sustained right ventricular hypertension during cardiac morphogenesis is thought to be responsible for persistence of myocardial
sinusoidal–coronary artery connections. Considering an unusual observation of ventriculo-coronary arterial connections in
a patient with critical pulmonary valve stenosis, we speculate that sinusoidal connections in pulmonary atresia with intact
ventricular septum occur not only because it is the only exit for blood from the blind right ventricle, but also because of
intrinsic altered morphogenesis of the right ventricle myocardium. 相似文献

Aorticopulmonary window associated with anomalous origin of coronary arteries is rare; only 12 cases have been reported previously.
Origin of coronary arteries from the communicating bridge is rare, having occurred in only five of these cases. We describe
two additional cases of this entity, in one of which the right coronary artery arose from the window proper. We also review
the previously reported cases. 相似文献

A comparison is presented between the performance of the right ventricle (RV) and the left ventricle (LV) in neonatal hearts
studied under conditions of volume loading and tachycardia. Isolated, atrially paced (150 or 300 bpm), isovolumically beating
pig hearts (1–3 days of age) underwent retrograde aortic perfusion with a nonrecirculating, crystalloid solution. Ventricular
pressure was assessed with saline-filled balloon catheters, which allowed separate loading of the RV or LV. Both ventricles
showed an initial increase followed by a leveling off, but no decline, in peak systolic pressure (PSP) and +dP/dt
max with volume loading up to an end-diastolic pressure (EDP) of 18 mmHg. The LV generated a higher PSP and +dP/dt
max compared to the RV at equivalent pressure or volume preloads. However, the maximal systolic elastance (E
max) was comparable for both ventricles. Although the RV demonstrated a greater compliance than the LV, the myocardial relaxation
time constant (τ) was similar for both chambers at equivalent volume preloads (sarcomere stretch). Positive dP/dt
max correlated closely and in the same linear fashion with −dP/dt
max for both ventricles, indicating that the RV and LV exhibited similar contraction–relaxation coupling. Increasing the heart
rate to 300 bpm decreased PSP, +dP/dt
max, and −dP/dt
max and increased EDP for both ventricles, whereas E
max and τ were not significantly altered. Thus, although there are differences between the functional properties of the neonatal
RV and LV, there are also important similarities, especially with regard to myocardial relaxation. 相似文献

The evaluation of left ventricular function with dobutamine stress echocardiography is described for the first time in a
patient with anomalous left coronary artery from the pulmonary trunk during the preoperative and postoperative periods. This
method demonstrated signs of myocardial ischemia that were not seen on the resting echocardiogram during the preoperative
period and ventricular function recovery after surgical intervention. 相似文献

Successful Embolization of Coronary Arteriovenous Fistula Using an Interlocking Detachable Coil 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Although the efficacy and feasibility of coil embolization of coronary arteriovenous fistulas have been reported, the procedure
may be complicated by migration of the coil into peripheral vessels or pulmonary arteries. We report two cases of successful
coil embolization of such lesions using an interlocking detachable coil. This system can provide safer and more effective
coil embolization in patients with coronary arteriovenous fistula. 相似文献

Transcatheter Occlusion of a Large Left Coronary Artery to Right Superior Vena Cava Fistula Using the Amplatzer Duct Occluder Device 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Transcatheter embolization has become the therapy of choice for most coronary artery fistula. We report a 5.9-kg infant with a coronary artery fistula from the left coronary artery to the right superior vena cava with significant congestive heart failure. The infant underwent successful complete occlusion using the Amplatzer duct occluder. 相似文献

Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a common cause of lower respiratory infections in infants. Cardiac arrhythmias are an
uncommon complication in infants with RSV bronchiolitis. Presumably, the arrhythmias may be secondary to RSV pericarditis,
myocarditis, or some other infection of the heart. We report on a patient with RSV bronchiolitis who had clinical myocarditis
complicated by ventricular tachycardia. 相似文献

Course of Right and Left Ventricular Function in Patients with Pulmonary Insufficiency After Repair of Tetralogy of Fallot 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
Surgical repair of tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) frequently results in pulmonary valve insufficiency. Nevertheless, no serial
information is available on the long-term impact of the valvular insufficiency on right and left ventricular function. Right
and left ventricular ejection fraction was measured serially by radionuclide angiocardiography in 21 patients with at least
moderate pulmonary insufficiency after repair of TOF. A baseline study was obtained an average of 1.2 years after repair,
and a follow-up study was performed an average of 10.2 years after surgery. Changes in ventricular function over time and
deviations from the normal range were analyzed. At baseline evaluation the mean right ventricular ejection fraction (RVEF;
0.52 ± 0.10) and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF; 0.68 ± 0.10) were normal. At the time of follow-up the mean RVEF
had significantly decreased to 0.45 ± 0.09 (p < 0.01). The mean LVEF had decreased to 0.60 ± 0.11 (p < 0.02). This change was independent of the RVEF (r=−0.13). Eleven patients (52%) had an abnormal RVEF or LVEF at follow-up. Nineteen patients (90%) showed a decrease of 0.05
or more in RVEF, LVEF, or both between studies. These data suggest a negative impact of long-standing pulmonary insufficiency
on right and left ventricular systolic function after repair of TOF. Therefore, continued surveillance of biventricular function
in this patient population appears warranted. 相似文献
