The Evaluation of Syncope in a Predominantly Black Population: Focus on Neuroimaging.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Current guidelines do not support the routine use of computed tomography (CT) scan of the head in the diagnostic workup of syncope. There is a lack of research to support whether these guidelines apply to the Black population. OBJECTIVE This study aims to evaluate the yield of

Investigation of a hemodynamic basis for syncope in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Use of a head-up tilt test.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Syncope and sudden death in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy may have a hemodynamic basis. The presence of a small ventricular cavity with high intracavity pressures may activate left ventricular baroreceptors and cause reflex hypotension as described in other populations with

Giant fibrovascular polyp of the esophagus. A lesion causing upper airway obstruction and syncope.

Only registered users can translate articles

Giant fibrovascular polyp of the esophagus is a rare but dramatic entity. These large polyps arise in the proximal esophagus and can cause airway obstruction secondary to mechanical pressure on the larynx, or they can present as a mass that is regurgitated into the oral cavity. We present a

Patient after renal transplantation with syncope: Role of echocardiography in upright position.

Only registered users can translate articles

In Doppler echocardiography, testing left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) gradient in the supine position (as is done in everyday practice) does not reflect the pathophysiology of this dynamic abnormality during the daily activities that trigger the symptoms (eg, syncope). LVOT obstruction is a

Diffuse Coronary Artery Fistula Leading to Syncope and Treated with Transcatheter Coil Occlusion and a Defibrillator: A Case Report.

Only registered users can translate articles

Coronary artery fistulas connecting coronary arteries to cardiac cavities are rare but clinically significant anomalies.A 47-year-old male patient presented with syncope. Left ventricular dysfunction was detected on echocardiography. Extensive coronary

Unusual cause of syncope in a 17 year-old young woman: left ventricular hydatid cyst.

Only registered users can translate articles

Cardiac involvement in echinococcosis remains a singular finding, possibly associated with confusing symptomatology. We report the original case of a 17 year-old young woman, referred to our cardiology department for repeated exertion syncopes, and ultimately, proven through echocardiography,

[A case of swallow syncope with transient congestive liver caused by esophageal dilatation associated with huge hiatal hernia]

Only registered users can translate articles

A 76-year-old woman suffered from repeated postprandial syncope of unknown cause. Computed tomography scanning revealed an enlarged hiatal hernia sac with food residues that compressed both the left atrium and inferior vena cava. As soon as the hernia cavity expanded during an upper gastrointestinal

The heart is not necessarily empty at syncope.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Although extensively investigated, the mechanism(s) of post-spaceflight orthostatic intolerance has not been elucidated. Several researchers have proposed that the "trigger" for syncope is an empty ventricle, initiated when a hypercontractile state, possibly due to a sudden surge in

Influence of left ventricular cavity size on clinical presentation in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

Only registered users can translate articles

The aim of this study was to assess whether left ventricular (LV) cavity size relates to functional impairment and syncope in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HC). LV diastolic dysfunction influences functional limitation in HC. A reduced LV end-diastolic dimension may underlie impaired

[A 78-year-old man with unruptured aneurysm of Valsalva found accidentally by syncope during straining].

Only registered users can translate articles

A 78-year-old man who suffered from syncope and light-headedness during straining. The patient visited to our department for evaluation of his symptom. Cardiac auscultation revealed a grade II/IV systolic murmur along the left parasternal border. Electrocardiography showed T wave inversion at the

Syncope: The Underestimated Threat in Severe Aortic Stenosis.

Only registered users can translate articles

Decision making in severe aortic stenosis (AS) requires a comprehensive pre-operative evaluation of the risk-to-benefit ratio. The aim of this study was to assess whether certain pre-operative symptoms are associated with outcome after surgical aortic valve replacement

Secondary lymphoma of the heart presenting as recurrent syncope.

Only registered users can translate articles

A 12-year-old male child presented with recurrent syncope. Ventricular tachycardia was noted on the electrocardiogram. Transthoracic echocardiogram revealed a homogeneous tumor mass in the right ventricular cavity with extension into the outflow region. Left cervical lymph node biopsy confirmed the

Case report of death from falling: Did heart tumor cause syncope?

Only registered users can translate articles

A healthy man in his 30s was working on the balustrade of stairs on the second floor. He suddenly fell downstairs without saying anything. On emergency hospitalization, chest echogram showed left hemothorax. Cardiac echogram showed a floating mass from the mitral valve in the left ventricle and

Right Atrial Myxoma and Syncope.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Right atrial myxoma accounts for 15-20% of cardiac myxomas and syncope is a very rare manifestation. We present the case of an 89-year-old man with right atrial myxoma and syncope, and discuss the role of cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the diagnosis of myxomas. METHODS An

Postprandial cardiogenic syncope caused by gastric polyp-induced pyloric obstruction in an elderly woman with a giant hiatal hernia: a case report.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Hiatal hernias are common. In some reports, hiatal hernias have been implicated in causing dyspnea, syncope, and heart failure. METHODS An 82-year-old woman with a hiatal hernia was admitted to our hospital because she had experienced postprandial syncope during the last few years.
