Unguarded left atrioventricular orifice: An unusual cause of hypoplastic left ventricle and double-outlet right ventricle with intact ventricular septum.

Project description:An unguarded atrioventricular orifice is an extremely rare congenital anomaly characterized by the absence of the atrioventricular valve in varying proportions. While atresia of the mitral or aortic valves are usually described as causes for hypoplastic left heart, our case highlights the role of free atrioventricular valve regurgitation and consequent volume loss of the left heart, giving rise to a small left ventricle. There was an associated double-outlet right ventricle and Type B aortic interruption. While we have attempted to discuss the complex management options in this scenario, the parents decided to withdraw further care.

Left ventricle pseudoaneurysm-recurrence following surgical repair.

Project description:Left ventricular (LV) pseudoaneurysm is a rare complication following free wall rupture post transmural myocardial infarction or left ventricular surgery. A lot of imaging modalities like echocardiography, computerised tomography and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging are available to diagnose it. Echocardiography plays a significant role in delineating the cavity, orifice and impact on the surrounding structures. We present a case of LV pseudoaneurysm recurrence following surgical repair.

Multiple hydatid cysts of the interventricular septum.

Project description:Hydatid disease, Echinococcus granulosus, is a parasitic infection which is endemic in some countries. The liver and lungs are the most common sites of infection. Cardiac involvement is extremely rare. The most common localizations of cardiac involvement are the left ventricular free wall, right ventricle, and interventricular septum. Herein, we present a rare case of multiple cardiac hydatid cysts in the interventricular septum.

Crisscross heart with dextrocardia and intact interventricular septum.

Project description:Crisscross heart is a rare congenital heart disease characterized by a twisted atrioventricular connection, as a result of rotation of the ventricular mass along its long axis. We report an asymptomatic 48-year-old woman referred to us for evaluation of a cardiac murmur. Further evaluation showed situs solitus, dextrocardia with normal atrioventricular and ventriculoarterial connection, and a crisscross relation of the atrioventricular valves. Unlike the usual case of crisscross heart, our patient had an intact ventricular septum.

Resection of a large primary left ventricle tumour by cardiac autotransplantation in a 2-month-old infant: a case report.

Project description:Background:Surgery is the fundamental method for the treatment of primary cardiac tumours. However, due to the inaccessibility of anatomy and the proximity of important structures, it is very difficult to completely resect tumours of the left atrium or left ventricle without damaging the normal tissues. Cardiac autotransplantation for the resection of cardiac tumours is carried out by taking out the heart from the body, resecting cardiac tumours, and then transplanting the heart back into the body. Case summary:This article presents a successful case of cardiac autotransplantation for the complete resection of primary cardiac tumour in a 2-month-old infant and shares the noteworthy experience. Discussion:Tumours located in the left atrium and left ventricle are difficult to be exposed because of their deep posterior location and proximity to important anatomical structures such as mitral valve and chordae tendineae. How to resect the tumours completely without damaging the normal tissues is a great challenge. This case proves that cardiac autotransplantation is a good solution for tumours that are difficult to be resected completely by orthotopic cardiac transplantation.

A Rare Case of Lipomatous Hypertrophy of the Interventricular Septum.

Project description:Asymmetrical left ventricular hypertrophy secondary to interventricular septum hypertrophy is usually considered a typical phenotype of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. In rare cases other conditions such as tumors or lipomatous hypertrophy of the interventricular septum may have a similar presentation. We present a case of a male patient who presented for routine cardiology work up and was diagnosed of having ventricular septal hypertrophy secondary to localized lipomatous hypertrophy.
