A forty-seven-year-old female patient was admitted to our clinic with sudden ptosis and diplopia without pain. She had no trauma or systemic disease history. Ptosis and mydriasis were observed in her left eye. Eye movement was restricted all directions without lateral. Isolated oculomotor nerve paralysis was diagnosed based on clinical findings, and posterior communicating artery aneurysm was observed in magnetic resonance angiography.

Mitral valve prolapse in sudden cardiac arrest survivors - coincidence or causal relationship?
Heart Rhythm
January 2025
Department of Coronary Artery Disease and Cardiac Rehabilitation, National Institute of Cardiology, Warsaw, Poland.
Background: Sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) risk stratification in patients with mitral valve prolapse (MVP) may be complicated by other potential causes of arrhythmia.
Objectives: We aimed to characterize SCA survivors with isolated (iMVP) and non-isolated MVP (non-iMVP) and to assess their long-term follow-up.
Methods: This ambispective study included 75 patients with MVP who experienced SCA and were treated in our center between 2009-2024.

Inheritance of Imaging Parameters of Arrhythmic Risk in Mitral Valve Prolapse: A Pedigree Study.
Circ Cardiovasc Imaging

Division of Cardiology, Department of Medicine, University of California, San Francisco (L.C., S.D., D.B., J.J.T., Q.F., L.T., A.H.R., R.J., S.H., H.H.H., Z.H.T., N.B.S., F.N.D.).
Background: A subset of patients with mitral valve prolapse (MVP), a highly heritable condition, experience sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) or sudden cardiac death (SCD). However, the inheritance of phenotypic imaging features of arrhythmic MVP remains unknown.
Methods: We recruited 23 MVP probands, including 9 with SCA/SCD and 14 with frequent/complex ventricular ectopy.
Transvaginal Evisceration in a Patient With Rectovaginal Prolapse: A Twist in the Tale.
Cureus
December 2024
General Surgery, Hospital do Espírito Santo de Évora, Évora, PRT.
Transvaginal evisceration is a rare, potentially life-threatening condition involving herniation of intra-abdominal contents, typically the small bowel, through a defect in the vaginal wall. Most commonly observed in postmenopausal women with a history of pelvic surgery or trauma, it necessitates prompt surgical intervention. We report a unique case of transvaginal evisceration in a 67-year-old postmenopausal female with rectovaginal prolapse following minor trauma.

School of Biomedical Engineering and Imaging Sciences-Faculty of Life Sciences and Medicine, King's College London, London, UK. Electronic address:
With a prevalence of 2-3% in the general population, mitral valve prolapse (MVP) is the most common valvular heart disease. The clinical course is benign in the majority of patients, although severe mitral regurgitation, heart failure, and sudden cardiac death affect a non-negligible subset of patients. Imaging of MVP was confined to echocardiography until a few years ago when it became apparent that cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) could offer comparative advantages for detecting and quantifying mitral valve abnormalities alongside tissue myocardial characterization.
