Left atrial thrombus in a neonate with normal heart after sustained supraventricular tachycardia.

Left Atrial Thrombus is uncommon in neonates. We present a neonate who had Paroxysmal Supraventricular Tachycardia (PSVT), whose echocardiography revealed a large left atrial thrombus which resolved later with treatment. Supra Ventricular Tachycardia (SVT) is not an uncommon event in infants with an incidence of 1:2500.

A Comparative Study of Serum Uric Acid levels and Lipid Ratios in Coronary Artery Disease Patients.

Introduction: Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) appears to be common in the Indian population of different geographical origins, religions and languages. Measurement of lipid fractions and ratios are widely recommended for risk assessment. A few studies have shown that serum uric acid plays a role in the development of cardiovascular morbidity.

An Idiopathic Membranous IVC Obstruction: Presenting as a Variant of the BCS.

An Inferior Venacaval (IVC) lumen obstruction, whether it is partial or complete, is not a common phenomenon and it may be caused by the thrombosis or compression which may result from neoplastic or non neoplastic masses. There are cases which are idiopathic and which are typically referred to as membranous obstructions of the IVC. Here, we are presenting a 40 years old male with multiple tortuous veins over the abdomen, with non healing ulcers in the leg for 12 years, without ascites, who underwent a successful percutaneous transluminal balloon dilatation of the IVC membrane which was located above the hepatic veins, which resulted in a successful palliation of his symptoms.

CRAO in Moyamoya Disease.

Moyo Moya Disease (MMD) is a rare, progressively stenotic condition of the intracranial arteries with various cerebrovascular manifestations. Ocular manifestations are seen very rarely and there are only few case reports of ocular perfusion anomalies. Central Retinal Artery Occlusion (CRAO) can be caused by atherosclerosis related thrombosis, carotid embolism, cardiac embolism, thrombophilic disorders, giant cell arteritis, etc.
