ALCAPA is a rare congenital anomaly that presents with left ventricular (LV) dysfunction and mitral valve regurgitation. The mortality rate is roughly 90% if the intracoronary collateral isn't significantly augmented. Malignant arrhythmias resulting in sudden death are common, affecting nearly 90% of patients with a mean age of 35 years.

He presented with lateral lower limb ischemia and presented intermittent claudication. Using an intra-arterial thrombolysis transcatheter infusion and angioplasty.

Otherwise conventional therapy, we report a technique, which autologous blood into intracoronary to supply oxygen and break process thrombosis results in successfully management no-reflow in primary PCI in ACS.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFA new method for the nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) surface relaxivity calibration in hydrated cement samples is proposed. This method relies on a combined analysis of 28-d hydrated tricalcium silicate samples by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) image analysis and H-time-domain (TD)-NMR relaxometry. Pore surface and volume data for interhydrate pores are obtained from high resolution SEM images on surfaces obtained by argon broad ion beam sectioning.
