Unusual Presentation of a Pediatric Burkitt's Lymphoma With Infiltration of the Interatrial Septum.
J Pediatr Hematol Oncol
December 2024
Division of Paediatric Cardiology.
Background: Burkitt's lymphoma (BL) is the most common subtype of non-Hodgkin lymphoma in children, typically presenting with extranodal masses in areas such as the abdomen, face, and neck. Cardiac involvement in BL is extremely rare, especially in pediatric patients, and has significant implications for diagnosis, management, and prognosis.
Case Presentation: A 6-year-old male patient with Burkitt's lymphoma, presenting with an uncommon infiltration of the interatrial septum, is described.

Unlabelled: was to develop and clinically test a hardware and software system capable of identifying the predictors of the hidden forms of atrial fibrillation (AF) using 12-lead ECG data in sinus rhythm.
Materials And Methods: There was developed the hardware and software system "Intecard 8.1" to assess a set of markers for atrial electrical instability by 3-5-minute ECG recordings in sinus rhythm.
Incomplete cor triatriatum dexter and percutaneous closure of atrial septal defects, a single-centre experience.

Article Synopsis
- Cor Triatriatum Dexter (CTD) is a rare heart defect that splits the right atrium into two chambers, with a milder version called incomplete CTD (CTDi) that only partially divides it.
- CTDi can be linked to interatrial septal defects and often presents in adults who experience cryptogenic strokes, usually leading to referrals for closure of a patent foramen ovale (PFO).
- Successful PFO closure in patients with CTDi can be challenging due to complications in visualization and device deployment, making advanced imaging techniques and careful planning essential for positive outcomes.
Hemodynamic Effects and Clinical Outcomes of Left Atrial Veno-Arterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (LAVA-ECMO) in Cardiogenic Shock.

Left atrial veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (LAVA-ECMO) in cardiogenic shock (CS) is a novel mechanical cardiocirculatory support strategy that provides robust cardiocirculatory support and simultaneous left and right atrial venting by way of a multifenestrated transeptal catheter. We performed a single-center retrospective analysis of all patients aged ≥18 years with CS who underwent LAVA-ECMO at a quaternary care institution from 2018 to 2023. Clinical outcomes and prehemodynamics and posthemodynamics were evaluated.

Transcatheter treatments for structural heart disease, including edge-to-edge mitral valve repair (mTEER), heavily rely on transoesophageal echocardiography (TOE) for pre-procedural assessment and guidance. Trans-septal puncture (TSP) is one of the first key steps of such procedures, with two-dimensional (2D) TOE often providing suboptimal imaging. Three-dimensional (3D) echocardiography could overcome the limitations of 2D TOE and improve the assessment of tenting height.
