Prognostic value of carbohydrate antigen 125 in patients undergoing surgical left ventricular reconstruction
2023, International Journal of CardiologyCitation Excerpt :We observed that CA125 displayed worse overall survival and perioperative outcomes, which were sustained after multiple adjustments using Cox regression analysis. LVA is a severe complication of myocardial infarction, the prevalence of which is about 28% in patients suffered from myocardial infarction and 7.6% in those with coronary artery disease [20,21]. The purpose of SLVR is to reduce the left ventricular volume and reconstruct the left ventricular morphology.
Incidental discovery of a rare right ventricular aneurysm
2021, Radiology Case ReportsA Boolean Dilemma: True or False Aneurysm?
2021, JACC: Case ReportsCitation Excerpt :Therefore, surgical resection is generally recommended, despite 10% to 23% perioperative mortality (higher if additional mitral-valve involvement) (9). In case of true aneurysms, the 5-year survival rate is substantially favorable (71%) (4). Management generally consists of pharmacological afterload reduction (angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor), vascular prophylaxis, anti-anginal therapy, and, in selected cases, anticoagulation.
Temporal Trends and Outcomes of Left Ventricular Aneurysm After Acute Myocardial Infarction
2020, American Journal of CardiologyMechanical, inflammatory, and embolic complications of myocardial infarction: An emergency medicine review
2019, American Journal of Emergency MedicineCitation Excerpt :Approximately 85% of LVAs are anterolateral in nature, corresponding to the territory perfused by the LAD artery, with 5–10% located posteriorly in the distribution of the RCA, and the remaining LVAs arising from the lateral myocardium supplied by the obtuse marginal arteries [147,150]. Historically LVA was thought to develop in up to 35% of patients following an AMI [151], but current literature reports an incidence between 8 and 15%, likely due to contemporary reperfusion strategies [149,152,153]. Risk factors for LVA formation include female gender, absence of previous angina, single-vessel disease, total LAD occlusion, hypertension, and incomplete reperfusion [149,154].
Left ventricular perforation in a patient with a left ventricular aneurysm during NOGA® catheter mapping
2018, Cardiovascular Revascularization MedicineCitation Excerpt :Re-examination of the pre-procedural TTE identified the small basal inferolateral LV aneurysm (Fig. 2C and D). LV aneurysm can complicate a myocardial infarction in 7.6% of cases [11]. The presence of an aneurysm may be seen in patients being considered for intramyocardial stem cell injections given the increasing use of stem cells for refractory angina and chronic systolic heart failure [1–9].
