Two Rare Manifestations of Cardiac Papillary Fibroelastoma Presenting with Dyspnea.

ABSTRACT: Highlights•CPFs in relation to the pulmonary valve are very rare.•Physical obstruction of the right coronary ostium by a tumor is a rare finding.•Three-dimensional TEE can demonstrate the pathophysiologic mechanism of a tumor.

Cardiac myxoma presenting as dyspnea after cesarean delivery.

Project description:Introduction. Dyspnea during pregnancy and in the immediate postpartum or postoperative period is a relatively common symptom that can be an early sign of a life threatening condition. The differential diagnosis is broad and can represent a wide variety of underlying etiologies. Cardiac tumors are one of the rarest causes of dyspnea in a reproductive age women during the postpartum period. Case Presentation. 42-years old G(7)P(1051) presented with acute dyspnea postoperatively after an elected uncomplicated repeat cesarean section and tubal ligation. The patient was diagnosed with a large left atrial cardiac myxoma and required urgent cardiothoracic surgery. Conclusion. The following case illustrates how a standard response to a common postpartum symptom, dyspnea, can divert and distract from less common exam findings. A careful, stepwise evaluation of symptoms and related findings will usually determine the underlying cause so that appropriate and timely treatment can be initiated.

Cardiac papillary fibroelastoma presenting as acute stroke.

Project description:We present a case of a young woman who was initially diagnosed with acute stroke with no obvious risk factors. Preliminary investigation with transthoracic echocardiography and subsequent advanced imaging with transoesophageal echocardiography suggested the diagnosis of a benign cardiac tumour on the anterior leaflet of mitral valve. The patient underwent urgent surgical resection. Histology confirmed the diagnosis of cardiac papillary fibroelastoma. She made complete clinical recovery with no recurrence of symptoms.

Papillary cystadenocarcinoma of ovary presenting as obstructive jaundice: a rare presentation.

Project description:Obstructive jaundice resulting from malignancy of gastrointestinal tract and hepatobiliary tract has been reported in various studies. Ovarian malignancy leading to obstructive jaundice due to portal lymphadenopathy is of rare occurrence. We report a case presented with obstructive jaundice and on further evaluation, found to have ovarian papillary cyst adenocarcinoma with secondaries at porta hepatis which was managed successfully by neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by cytoreductive surgery.

Cancer Patient With Unusual Dyspnea in the COVID-19 Era: Challenging Management of a Rare Cardiac Tumor.

Project description:Heart failure symptoms, in particular dyspnea, may be difficult to frame in a patient with cancer. We report the case of an oncological patient whose dyspnea could have been attributable to various causes and whose management was challenging in the context of the coronavirus disease-2019 pandemic. (Level of Difficulty: Beginner.).

A rare case of amiodarone-induced hypothyroidism presenting with cardiac tamponade.

Project description:Subclinical pericardial effusions are common in patients with untreated hypothyroidism and usually resolve with thyroid replacement therapy, but cardiac tamponade is a rare presentation of prolonged untreated hypothyroidism. We report the first case of cardiac tamponade due to hypothyroidism produced by administration of amiodarone.

Dyspnea as the Presenting Symptom of Cervical Spondylotic Myelopathy.

Project description:Background A case report of acute unilateral hemidiaphragm paralysis and resultant dyspnea due to cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM) is described. Case Report An 82-year-old man presented with a nonproductive cough, chest congestion, hoarseness, and shortness of breath on ambulation. The patient underwent cardiac catheterization, which revealed extensive stenosis of the major cardiac arteries. Subsequently, he underwent triple coronary artery bypass grafting. Despite the cardiac surgery, the patient's dyspnea did not improve. In addition, he developed new complaints of generalized weakness. Magnetic resonance and radiographic imaging of the cervical spine revealed extensive multilevel degenerative spondylosis with moderate to severe central canal narrowing from C2 to C7 and myelomalacia. The patient underwent C2-C6 laminectomy and instrumented fusion with local autograft. After surgery, the patient had gradual relief of dyspnea as well as improvement of strength. The dyspnea completely resolved. Conclusion The diagnosis of CSM as the cause of dyspnea is difficult to make. When unrelated cardiac or pulmonary disease coexists, the presenting symptoms of CSM may be subtle and must be actively sought. Signs and symptoms can vary widely and may include symptoms of intermittent neck pain or headache. Dyspnea may be related to unilateral diaphragm paralysis caused by CSM. This etiology of dyspnea should be considered in elderly patients who have other comorbidities that often obscure the diagnosis.

Hematological dyspnea: A rare cause with gratifying recovery.

Project description:A 17-year-old female was referred for evaluation of fever of two-month duration with acute onset of dyspnea since 1 week. Clinical examination revealed tachycardia, tachypnea, elevated jugular venous pressure, bilateral basal crepitations with normal heart sounds, and no murmur. Chest X-ray showed infiltrates in bilateral lung fields. Echocardiography revealed obliteration of biventricular apices along with layered thrombus over the left ventricular endocardium. Doppler studies elicited restrictive physiology with mild mitral and tricuspid regurgitation. Complete hemogram revealed hypereosinophilia with eosinophilic count of 7.4 × 109/L. All secondary causes of elevated eosinophil count were excluded. The patient was started on steroids and anticoagulation. Serial echocardiograms showed clearing of the thrombus with marked symptomatic improvement. We highlight a case of idiopathic hypereosinophilic syndrome with classic cardiac (Loeffler endocarditis) and pulmonary manifestations and prompt recovery with steroids and anticoagulation. <Learning objective: Idiopathic hypereosinophilic syndrome is a rare entity leading to multi-organ involvement. Cardiac involvement is one of the most common causes of morbidity and mortality. On the basis of this case report, we discuss Loeffler endocarditis in idiopathic hypereosinophilic syndrome; demonstrate classic echocardiographic findings in the intermediate stage, and remarkable symptomatic and echocardiographic recovery after appropriate treatment.>.
