A Rare Case of Left Atrial Myxoma Vascularity Causing Acquired Coronary Cameral Fistula: Role of Transesophageal Echocardiography.

Project description:Left atrial myxoma is the common benign tumor of heart. Coronary arteries may supply these tumor. Considering the vascular nature of the tumor, acquired coronary cameral fistula(CCF) can be a possibility postexcision of the left atrial myxoma. Here, we discuss a case of 53-year-old female patient, who developed acquired CCF, following excision of the tumor and the role of transesophageal echocardiography intraoperatively in diagnosis.

Role of transesophageal echocardiography in surgical retrieval of embolized amplatzer device and closure of coronary-cameral fistula.

Project description:Congenital coronary artery fistula is an uncommon anomaly. Transcatheter coil embolization or Amplatzer vascular plug device closure of fistula is often done in symptomatic patients with safe accessibility to the feeding coronary artery. Embolization of Amplatzer vascular plug device is rare. We report an 11-year-old male child who presented to us with increasing shortness of breath for 7 years. He had a history of Amplatzer vascular plug device closure of right coronary-cameral fistula 8 years back. Echocardiography demonstrated a dilated aneurysmal right coronary artery with turbulent jet entering into the right ventricle (RV) and device embolized into the left pulmonary artery (LPA). Cardiac catheterization eventually confirmed the diagnosis. Surgical closure of fistula and retrieval of device was done using cardiopulmonary bypass. Intraoperatively transesophageal echocardiogram helped in localizing fistula opening in the RV below the anterior leaflet of tricuspid valve, continuous monitoring to prevent further distal embolization of the device during surgical handling, and assessment of completeness of repair of the fistula and LPA following retrieval of the device.

Windsock deformity of submitral left ventricular aneurysm communicating into left atrium - role of transesophageal echocardiography.

Project description:Submitral left ventricular aneurysm (SMLA) is a rare condition. We report here a 38-year-old male patient, presented with mitral regurgitation and features of congestive cardiac failure (CCF) with New York Heart Association (NYHA) function class III, diagnosed to have SMLA. We discuss here the etiology, types, clinical presentation, and management of SMLA and also the role of transesophageal echocardiography in diagnosis.

The Mechanism of Mitral Regurgitant Jets Identified by 3-Dimensional Transesophageal Echocardiography.

Project description:This study is a case report, which presents a case of severe mitral regurgitation in a 77-year-old man. Two-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography (TEE), regurgitant jets directed anteriorly in early systole and centrally to laterally in late systole were seen, while three-dimensional TEE showed a flail posterior middle scallop not only angulated centrally, but also laterally, which provided insight into the mechanism of mitral regurgitant jet direction. This case demonstrates the clinical usefulness of 3-dimensional TEE for identifying the mechanism of mitral regurgitant jets. The institution where the figures and the videos were recorded: Division of Cardiology, Mazankowski Alberta Heart Institute, University of Alberta Hospital, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.

Coronary-Cameral Fistula Connecting the Left Anterior Descending Artery and the First Obtuse Marginal Artery to the Left Ventricle: A Rare Finding.

Project description:Coronary-cameral fistulas are rare congenital malformations, often incidentally found during cardiac catheterizations. The majority of these fistulas are congenital in nature but can be acquired secondary to trauma or invasive cardiac procedures. These fistulas most commonly originate in the right coronary artery and terminate into the right ventricle and least frequently drain into the left ventricle. Depending upon their size and location, coronary-cameral fistulas can lead to congestive heart failure, myocardial infarction, and bacterial endocarditis. We describe a case of 49-year-old woman who presented with worsening exertional dyspnea and leg swelling. Transthoracic echocardiogram revealed an ejection fraction of 35%. Cardiac catheterization demonstrated a fistula connecting the left anterior descending artery and the first obtuse marginal artery to the left ventricle. In this report, the authors provide a concise review on coronary fistulas, complications, and management options.

Case report: Percoronary device closure of tortuous coronary artery fistula into left atrium

Project description:Surgical ligation and transcatheter occlusion are the mainstream for the treatment of coronary artery fistulas (CAFs). However, these techniques applied to tortuous and aneurysmal CAF, especially those draining into left-heart, have their known drawbacks. We report, a successful percoronary device closure of such CAF, originating from left main coronary artery and draining into left atrium, through a left subaxillary minithoracotomy. Through a puncture on the distal straight course, we occluded CAF exclusively under transesophageal echocardiography guidance. Complete occlusion was achieved. It’s a simple, safe, and effective alternative for tortuous, large, and aneurysmal CAFs draining into the left heart.
