Cardiac Lymph Flow Features and New Opportunities for Their Experimental Visualization.

Dokl Biochem Biophys

January 2025

Laboratory of Microangiopathic Mechanisms of Atherogenesis, St. Petersburg State University, St. Petersburg, Russia.

The aim of this study was to describe the features of myocardial lymph flow using a new combined method of visualization of the lymphatic system. The study was performed on pig hearts harvested from a local slaughterhouse. The original dye, consisting of lipid-soluble chlorophyll and lipiodol, was injected stepwise into the lymphatic vessels.

Background: The relationship between diastolic function parameters and the severity of coronary artery disease (CAD) is controversial. This study aimed to determine the relationship between left ventricular diastolic function and the severity of CAD.

Methods: This cross-sectional study included 63 patients with Ischemic heart disease (IHD) or those suspected of having IHD, who underwent angiography.

We report a case of a patient with dilated cardiomyopathy who experienced recurrent ventricular tachycardia (VT) and multiple defibrillations following CRT-D implantation. Due to worsening cardiac function, the patient required surgical implantation of a left ventricular assist device (LVAD) as a bridge to heart transplantation. During the procedure, we used the Ensite three-dimensional mapping system to perform activation and substrate mapping of the VT targets, followed by endocardial and epicardial cryoballoon ablation of clinical VT.

Background: Cardioneuroablation (CNA) targets ganglionated plexus (GP) to treat neurally-mediated syncope, yet a standardized GP identification method is lacking. Post-processing of cardiac computed tomography (CT) identifies epicardial fat thus allowing for fat pad identification. While CT-guided CNA's feasibility is documented, data about GP anatomy and comprehensive evaluations of GP targeting methods remain scarce.
