Eosinophilic Myocarditis Secondary to T-Cell Lymphoma Complicated by Left Ventricular Thrombus and Tear.

ABSTRACT: We describe a 54-year-old male in whom eosinophilic myocarditis secondary to T-cell lymphoma complicated by bilateral ischemic stroke was diagnosed. The source, identified as an apical tear with thrombus formation, was revealed by transthoracic echocardiography. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.).

Colossal left ventricular apical thrombus.

Project description:Left ventricular apical thrombus is a known complication following an anterior ST-elevation myocardial infarction. Although left ventriculography may suggest an apical thrombus in the presence of a filling defect, additional imaging with echocardiography and/or cardiac magnetic resonance is strongly recommended to further characterize the thrombus post myocardial infarction.

Dabigatran for left ventricular thrombus.

Project description:Male patient in dilated phase of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy had multiple hospitalizations during the past 2 years either due to congestive heart failure, stroke, scar epilepsy, or atrial fibrillation and ventricular tachycardia. Medication included evidence based therapy for heart failure, cordarone and warfarin. Anticoagulation had to be discontinued due to marked fluctuations in INR. Transthoracic Echocardiography (TTE) revealed a mobile mass in the left ventricle. He was treated with Dabigatran 110mg twice a day for 4 months without any bleeding or embolic episode and complete resolution of thrombus. Dabigatran is a reversible direct thrombin inhibitor and currently approved for the prevention of thromboembolic episodes in non-valvar atrial fibrillation. This case demonstrates possible thrombolytic properties of dabigatran in resolution of left ventricular thrombus.

Eosinophilic myocarditis complicated by permanent atrioventricular nodal block: a case report.

Project description:BackgroundEosinophilic myocarditis (EM) is a rare disease with different clinical pictures and disease courses. Little literature is available on the various courses of the disease.Case summaryA previously healthy 44-year-old male patient presented with acute heart failure and developed complete atrioventricular (AV) block requiring pacing. Acute heart failure was managed with inotropic support, non-invasive ventilation, and implantation of a permanent AV-sequential pacemaker. Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging was suggestive of myocarditis and endomyocardial biopsy diagnosed EM histologically. Endomyocardial biopsy was essential for definite aetiologic assignment, thus dispelling initial reservations about immunosuppressive therapy. Final treatment strategy consisted of steroids and Azathioprine.DiscussionEndomyocardial biopsy is essential to establish diagnosis and targeted treatment in EM, which can rapidly lead to life-threatening conditions. Left ventricular function recovered within 2 weeks in response to immunosuppression and the patient was consistently well during follow-up. Despite the otherwise good response to immunosuppression, complete AV block continued over time.

Left ventricular mass: myxoma or thrombus?

Project description:Patient with embolic episode should always be evaluated for cardiac mass. Mass in left ventricular can be a myxoma or thrombus even in a normal functioning heart. In either case, mobile mass with embolic potential should be surgically resected.

A case report of acute Leriche syndrome: aortoiliac occlusive disease due to embolization from left ventricular thrombus caused by myocarditis.

Project description:BackgroundLeriche syndrome is the triad of symptoms consisting of claudication, erectile dysfunction, and absence of femoral pulses. Inflammatory disease of the heart muscle, myocarditis, may occur because of immune system activation, drug exposure or infections.Case presentationA 31-year-old man with no previous medical history presented to the emergency department with acute back pain that had started suddenly during weightlifting, which was initially misdiagnosed as spinal disc herniation. The patient returned four hours later and a thoracoabdominal computed tomography showed a large thrombus in the aortoiliac region creating a total occlusion. Vascular surgery with embolectomy was immediately performed. Further investigation with echocardiography revealed deteriorated systolic dysfunction with marked hypokinesia and two large thrombi in the left ventricle. Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging showed late contrast enhancement of the inferolateral and septal regions, which indicated a recent myocarditis.ConclusionMyocarditis can result in multiple embolization with diverse organ manifestation including total occlusion of the aortoiliac arteries, which required urgent embolectomy.
