Article Synopsis
  • Advances in medical technology have improved the diagnosis and treatment of acute myocardial infarction, but complications remain lethal and require swift surgical intervention.
  • Multimodal imaging, including cardiac ultrasound and computed tomography, plays a crucial role in accurately diagnosing these complications, especially in complex cases.
  • The case highlights a rare complication, a pseudoaneurysm of the interventricular septum, illustrating how different imaging techniques work together to confirm diagnosis and inform treatment.

Heart failure is still the leading cause of hospitalization in patients over 65 years of age and is defined as a multifactorial pathology which involves environmental factors and also genetic predispositions. The aim of the present study was to evaluate a possible correlation between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of angiotensin converting enzyme 2 () and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 () genes and cardiac remodeling in Caucasian patients diagnosed with heart failure. Our comparative translational research study included 116 patients diagnosed with heart failure and was carried out in Cluj-Napoca, Romania between September 2017 and March 2019.

Background: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) can lead to cardiac complications: brady and tachyarrhythmias and sudden cardiac death. Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is the gold standard for the treatment of OSA. The present study aims to demonstrate the efficiency of CPAP in the treatment of cardiac arrhythmias in patients with OSA.
