Department of Paediatric Cardiology and Cardiac Surgery, Bambino Gesù Children's Hospital, IRCCS, Sant'Onofrio 4, 00165 Rome, Italy.
Aims: The aims of this study are to evaluate the progressive involvement of the cardiac conduction system in the Kearn-Sayre syndrome (KSS) and to establish criteria for the prevention of episodes of syncope or sudden cardiac death.
Methods And Results: This is a prospective monocentric study including KSS patients, with diagnosis based on clinical manifestations, muscle biopsy, and genetic tests, before the age of 18. All patients underwent cardiac screening examination with 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG), 24-h Holter monitoring, and pacemaker (PM) interrogation twice a year.
Tricuspid and Mitral Valve Regurgitation with Bi-fascicular Block Following a Horse Kick.
Intern Med
June 2018
Department of Cardiovascular Medicine, Fukushima Medical University, Japan.
A 40-year-old man was transferred to our hospital following an isolated horse kick injury to the anterior chest wall. The case showed bi-fascicular block, severe tricuspid valve regurgitation due to ruptured chordae tendineae of the anterior leaflet, moderate mitral valve regurgitation due to prolapse of mitral anterior leaflet, and hypokinetic motion of the inferior septal wall. Both tricuspid and mitral insufficiency were completely repaired by a surgical operation.
