Among the Masses: Multiple Left Atrial Undifferentiated Pleomorphic Sarcomas.
Ochsner J
January 2024
Division of Cardiology, Baylor Scott & White Medical Center, Temple, TX.
Undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma, an exceedingly rare and aggressive primary cardiac tumor arising from mesenchymal stem cells, is associated with poor prognosis and high mortality despite adequate treatment. A 52-year-old female presented with a 2-month history of angina and dyspnea on exertion. Her clinical history included severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 myocarditis and iron deficiency anemia.

It plays a key role in acute therapy of electrical storm, treatment of VTs in patients with structural heart disease (SHD), and can reduce VT burden. Here we report on 10-year clinical outcomes following VT ablation from patients enrolled in the prospective German Ablation Registry.

Department of Structural Heart Disease, National Center for Cardiovascular Disease, China & Fuwai Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences & Peking Union Medical College, Beijing, China.
Background: Mitral valve transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (M-TEER) was initially indicated for central degenerative mitral regurgitation (DMR) lesions, but advancements in technology have enabled successful treatment in an increasing number of noncentral DMR patients.
Aims: This study aims to compare procedural outcomes and prognosis between noncentral DMR patients, outside clinical trial anatomical criteria, and central DMR patients undergoing M-TEER.
Methods: Drug-refractory moderate-to-severe DMR patients treated with M-TEER at Fuwai Hospital from January 2021 to February 2024 were retrospectively analyzed.
[Long-term postoperative outcomes after surgical correction of congenital subaortic stenosis].
Khirurgiia (Mosk)
December 2024
Penza State University, Penza, Russia.
Objective: To analyze the results of surgical treatment of discrete subaortic stenosis and identify the main factors of left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) restenosis in long-term postoperative period.
Material And Methods: There were 87 surgical interventions in 63 patients with congenital subaortic stenosis between 2008 and 2023. Mean preoperative peak systolic LVOT pressure gradient was 72 mmHg (50-110 mmHg).
Cardiac metastases are a rare site for metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). We describe an atypical presentation of an isolated right ventricular metastasis of HCC following successful treatment with no evidence of primary disease recurrence. The case presented as gradually worsening hypertension and erythrocytosis in the setting of normal surveillance scans and alpha-fetoprotein levels.
