Despite the widespread use of mini-invasive treatment methods in cardiac surgery, their use in post-infarction myocardial aneurysms of the left ventricle is not of frequent occurrence. In this clinical case, we used left anterolateral thoracotomy and "eating heart" technique to correct the post-infarction left ventricle aneurysm with ventricular thrombosis using the Dor method in a 66-year-old patient. This technique created opportunity to perform safely and effective the planned reconstruction of the left ventricle with less trauma, as well as to ease the postoperative course and recovery of the patient, reduce hospitalization time.

Introduction: Nemaline myopathy (NM), also known as Nemalinosis, is a rare congenital muscle disease with an incidence of 1 in 50000. It is characterized by nemaline rods in muscle fibers, leading to muscle weakness. We reported a case of NM revealed by cardiac involvement, and we highlighted the challenges in diagnosing this condition as well as its poor prognosis.

Unlabelled: Introduction Acute heart failure (AHF) is a life-threatening condition that requires swift diagnosis and tailored management to enhance patient outcomes. In the pursuit of more precise prognostic indicators, Tricuspid Annular Plane Systolic Excursion (TAPSE) and Pulmonary Arterial Systolic Pressure (PASP) have emerged as potential significant advancements. The TAPSE/PASP ratio, a novel parameter, has recently gained attention as a promising predictor of outcomes in acute heart failure.

Background: Transvenous lead extraction (TLE) has become an essential component of lead management strategies, but it carries the risk of severe complications, including damage to the tricuspid valve. Currently, there are no established predictors that can help prevent these complications.

Dyke-Davidoff-Masson syndrome (DDMS) is a rare neurological disorder characterized by cerebral hemiatrophy, leading to seizures, hemiparesis, and cognitive deficits. We report the case of a 20-year-old female with a history of chronic seizure disorder and left-sided hemiparesis. The patient experienced her first seizure at 6 months of age, followed by recurrent generalized tonic seizures throughout childhood.

Aims: The aim of this study was to develop an ultra-short echo time 3D magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) method for imaging subacute myocardial infarction (MI) quantitatively and in an accelerated way. Here, we present novel 3D T- and T -weighted Multi-Band SWeep Imaging with Fourier Transform and Compressed Sensing (MB-SWIFT-CS) imaging of subacute MI in mice hearts .
Methods And Results: Relaxation time-weighted and under-sampled 3D MB-SWIFT-CS MRI were tested with manganese chloride (MnCl) phantom and mice MI model.
