A case of myocardial muscular bridging causing severe hypotension during exercise-electrocardiography test
(2016)
Outlining the severity of the myocardial bridge (MB) is a critical step for selecting the appropriate option among medical, surgical, or angioplasty-based treatments. Invasive treatments are usually preferred if ...
Giant left ventricular pseudoaneurysm concomitant with severe mitral regurgitation: Multimodality imaging and successful surgical repair
(Oxford University Press, 2015)
A 58-year old man with previous myocardial infarction was shown to have a huge pseudoaneurysm (8 × 6 cm) on the left ventricular posterior wall concomitant with severe mitral regurgitation. The left ventricle was reconstructed ...
Hemopericardium and cardiac tamponade in a patient treated with dabigatran etexilate
(Korean Soc Cardiology, 2016)
Dabigatran etexilate is one of the new oral anticoagulants approved to reduce the risk of stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). A variety of bleeding complications with dabigatran have been reported, but reports ...
A novel predictor of radial spasm: Arterial stiffness
(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2018)
ObjectiveIn this study, we aimed to assess the relationship between radial artery spasm (RAS) and arterial stiffness (AS) measured by the oscillometric method.Materials and methodsA total of 123 consecutive patients scheduled ...
Radiofrequency catheter ablation of supraventricular tachycardia in pregnancy: Ablation without fluoroscopic exposure
(Elsevier, 2015)
Treatment of supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) during pregnancy can be troublesome. Antiarrhythmic drugs (especially beta-blockers and calcium channel blockers) are frequently used for treatment of symptomatic patients. ...
Adjusting the QRS duration by body mass index for prediction of response to cardiac resynchronization therapy: Does one QRS size fit all?
(Wiley, 2016)
Background: QRS duration (QRSd) is known to be affected by body weight and length. We tested the hypothesis that adjusting the QRSd by body mass index (BMI) may provide individualization for patient selection and improve ...
Assessment of energy expenditure, physical activity and sleep pattern in patients with frequent symptomatic ventricular ectopic beats
(Masson Editeur, 2016)
Background. Ventricular ectopic beats (VEBs) are considered as benign ventricular arrhythmias in patients without structural heart disease. However, symptomatic frequent VEBs can adversely affect energy metabolism. The ...
Native electrocardiographic qrs duration after cardiac resynchronization therapy: The impact on clinical outcomes and prognosis
(Churchill Livingstone Inc Medical Publishers, 2016)
Background: We investigated whether reversed electrical remodeling (RER), defined as narrowing of the native electrocardiographic QRS duration after cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT), might predict prognosis and ...
Sinus surgery complicated by ventricular fibrillation in a young patient: Inverted (reverse) Takotsubo cardiomyopathy
(Turkish Soc Cardiology, 2016)
Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TTC), also known as left ventricular apical ballooning syndrome or stress cardiomyopathy, is characterized by transient left ventricular systolic dysfunction and the absence of obstructive lesion ...
Effect of cardiac resynchronization therapy on mitral valve geometry: A novel aspect as "reversed mitral remodeling"
(Springer, 2018)
Amelioration of the valvular geometry is a possible mechanism for mitral regurgitation (MR) improvement in patients receiving cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). We aimed to establish the precise definition, incidence, ...
