Unusual echocardiographic appearance of intracardiac thrombi in a patient with endomyocardial fibrosis.
A five year old girl presented with a four month history of recurrent heart failure, which subsequently proved to be caused by endomyocardial fibrosis. There was no evidence of valvar disease. Echocardiography showed several echogenic masses with echolucent centres within the cardiac cavity. Histological examination showed that these masses were partly organised thrombus.
متن کاملEndomyocardial biopsy in diagnosis of cardiomyopathies.
The Konno bioptome, adapted to the intracardiac catheter, has been used in 64 patients in the differential diagnosis ofcardiomyopathies, as an additional diagnostic method during standard right heart catheterization and angiocardiography. In the specific instance of endomyocardial fibrosis the Konno biopsy enables histological diagnosis in life. Not surprisingly, in advanced cases dense collage...
متن کاملIntracardiac thrombus in Behçet’s disease
Behçet’s disease (BD) is a multisystem inflammatory disorder. Intracardiac thrombus (ICT) formation is an uncommon but important complication of BD. Of the cases of Behçet’s disease, we selected those with ICT. All patients fulfilled the diagnostic criteria of the International Study Group of Behçet’s disease. The ICT in each case was confirmed by ultrasonography, computed tomography and MRI. C...
متن کاملElectrocardiogram in Endomyocardial Fibrosis
Endomyocardial fibrosis (EMF) is a distinct obliterative cardiomyopathy characterized anatomically by right/left/bi ventricular endocardial fibrotic thickening and varying degrees of obliteration of the ventricular cavity. Chamber obliteration leads to diastolic restriction to ventricular filling and thus diastolic ventricular dysfunction. Involvement of the chordae tendinae and papillary muscl...
متن کاملPrimary restrictive cardiomyopathy. Non-tropical endomyocardial fibrosis and hypereosinophilic heart disease.
Eleven patients with a restrictive cardiomyopathy are described. Seven of these had biventricular disease and in them the haemodynamic abnormality resembled that in constrictive pericarditis but the condition was distinguishable because of unequal involvement of the two ventricles, murmurs of atrioventricular valve regurgitation, or characteristic ventricular deformity on angiography. Two of th...
