[Republication of: Evaluation of the implementation of the 2021 guidelines of the European Society of Cardiology for heart failure with reduced ejection fraction in patients aged over 75].

Introduction: Heart failure is a frequent pathology with a poor prognosis which mainly concerns elderly patients. The recommandations concerning the pharmagical treatment in heart failure with LVEF are reduced on randomized trials carried out on a young population. The aim of this work is to evaluate their application on a population aged ≥ 75.

[Symptomatic atrial fibrillation revealing chronic constrictive pericarditis in a young patient: A case report with a review of the literature].

Chronic Constrictive pericarditis (CCP) is a rare clinical entity that can pose diagnostic problems. Constrictive pericarditis is the final stage of a chronic inflammatory process characterized by fibrous thickening and calcification of the pericardium that impairs diastolic filling, reduces cardiac output, and ultimately leads to right heart failure and to atrial dilatation which can caused supravetricular arrythmia. Transthoracic echocardiography, computed tomography, and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging each can reveal severe diastolic dysfunction, increased pericardial thickness and calcifications.

[Lemierre's syndrome: Diagnosis, exploration, treatment].

Lemierre's syndrome is a rare and severe sepsis that can rapidly lead to a life-threatening condition in the absence of early management. This syndrome described at the beginning of the 20th century combines oropharyngeal infection complicated with septic thrombosis of the internal jugular vein and septic emboli predominantly pulmonary. Fusobacterium necrophorum, anaerobic germ, Gram negative bacillus is the main germ in this "necrobacillosis".
