Short and Long-Term Clinical Outcomes in Octogenarian Patients With Non-ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction: A Comparative Analysis of Revascularization Strategies Versus Medical Management.

Introduction: As the primary cause of morbidity and mortality among older individuals, cardiovascular disease remains a major concern. Choosing between revascularization and medical management of elderly patients remains controversial. This study aims to evaluate the clinical implications of these treatment approaches in the context of non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) in octogenarian patients.

A Challenging Case of Heart Displacement by a Large Mediastinal Germ Cell Tumor.

Mediastinal germ cell tumors (GCTs) are rare and aggressive cancers originating from the germ cells in the mediastinum. Early detection and treatment are vital due to their high potential for metastasis and recurrence. We present a case of a 28-year-old man who exhibited a cough and shortness of breath.

Regional Myopericarditis Mimicking Inferior Myocardial Infarction Following COVID-19 Vaccination: A Rare Adverse Event.
