Percutaneous Closure of Iatrogenic Ascending Aortic Pseudoaneurysms Following Surgical Aortic Repair.

Project description:We present a case series of 4 iatrogenic ascending aortic pseudoaneurysms that were all successfully repaired with a percutaneous approach. Pre-procedural imaging, device selection, and procedural techniques are described. With careful preparation and patient selection, catheter closure of iatrogenic ascending aortic pseudoaneurysms can be performed reliably and safely. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.).

Surgical management of a giant ascending aortic pseudoaneurysm.

Project description:Aortic pseudoaneurysm is a rare, life-threatening complication after cardiac or aortic root surgery. When a pseudoaneurysm has eroded bony structures in the chest, the surgeon's challenge is to choose the safest approach for sternotomy. Herein, we report the case of a 74-year-old woman who presented with a giant pseudoaneurysm of the ascending aorta, 8 years after undergoing aortic valve replacement. The 8.9×5.8-cm formation arose in the anterior aortic sinus, extended to the retrosternal region, exerted mass effect on the main pulmonary artery, and eroded the bony structures of the sternum and medial upper chest. A new aortic valved tissue conduit was placed, and the coronary arteries were reimplanted. The patient recovered without neurologic sequelae. We discuss the characteristics of this case and explain our surgical decisions.

Intracardiac Porcupine Quill Migration in a Dog: Multimodality Imaging Findings and Surgical Management.

Project description:The porcupine is a nocturnal quill-bearing rodent common throughout Italy. When threatened, it defends itself by erecting its quills, rattling its tail, and running sideways or backyard into predators. The quills are released upon contact with assailants and tend to migrate into several body tissues or cavities due to the unique inverted cuticles (crenate) directed downwards to the quill base (a sort of "harpoon effect"). Intracardiac migration of porcupine quills has been reported in a few dogs with severe clinical signs. This case report describes a single porcupine quill [Hystrix cristata, (HC)] migration through the heart in a dog and the use of multimodality imaging for the diagnosis and surgical approach. A 4-year-old 25 kg female mixed-breed dog was presented for evaluation of recurrent fever. Transthoracic echocardiographic examination showed a linear, hyperechoic foreign body traversing the interventricular septum from the heart base to the cardiac apex. Computed tomography and transesophageal echocardiography confirmed the presence of a single structure resembling a quill; a later esophageal endoscopy showed no anatomical alterations or mucosal injuries. Following median sternotomy and after accurate localization by intraoperative ultrasound, the quill was successfully removed. The dog had a good recovery without evidence of severe cardiac injury secondary to an intracardiac quill. To the best of the authors' knowledge, the identification of an intracardiac HC quill by ultrasonography and CT and its successful removal by ultrasound guide has not been previously reported.

Latest Advances in Multimodality Imaging of Aortic Stenosis.

Project description:Aortic stenosis is a common condition associated with major morbidity, mortality, and health-care costs. Nevertheless, we currently lack any effective medical therapies that can treat or prevent disease development or progression. Modern advances in echocardiography and CT have helped improve the assessment of aortic stenosis severity and monitoring of disease progression, whereas cardiac MRI informs on myocardial health and the development of fibrosis. In a series of recent studies, 18F-NaF PET/CT has been shown to assess valvular disease activity and progression, providing mechanistic insights that can inform potential novel therapeutic approaches. This review will examine the latest advances in the imaging of aortic stenosis and bioprosthetic valve degeneration and explore how these techniques can assist patient management and potentially accelerate novel therapeutic developments.

Multimodality imaging of a giant aortic valve papillary fibroelastoma.

Project description:Papillary fibroelastomas (PFEs) are benign cardiac tumors arising from endocardium. They are commonly found on valvular surfaces and average 1.0-1.5 cm in size. Though often asymptomatic, PFEs can lead to potentially severe complications, primarily due to their embolic potential. Surgical resection is recommended for all symptomatic or large PFEs. We report the case of a patient presenting with cardiovascular symptoms who was found to have a very large aortic valve PFE, as diagnosed by histopathologic examination following surgical resection. Multimodality cardiovascular imaging demonstrates the classic morphologic findings, including a pedunculated appearance and oscillating "frond-like" surface projections.

Multimodality Imaging for the Assessment of Severe Aortic Stenosis.

Project description:Aortic stenosis is the most common type of valvular heart disease. Aortic stenosis is characterized both by progressive valve narrowing and the left ventricular remodeling response that ensues. In aortic stenosis, therapeutic decision essentially depends on symptomatic status, stenosis severity, and status of left ventricular systolic function. Imaging is fundamental for the initial diagnostic work-up, follow-up, and selection of the optimal timing and type of intervention. Noninvasive imaging has played a pivotal role in enhancing our understanding of the complex pathophysiology underlying aortic stenosis, as well as disease progression in both the valve and myocardium. The present review provides the application of multimodality imaging in aortic stenosis.
