Embolic myocardial infarction in a patient with a fontan circulation

Hastings, Ramin S; McElhinney, Doff B; Saric, Muhamed; Ngai, Calvin; Skolnick, Adam H
Coronary artery embolism is an uncommon cause of acute myocardial infarction (MI). We present a patient with pulmonary atresia and severe right heart hypoplasia who underwent a lateral tunnel Fontan procedure in childhood and presented with an acute ST-segment elevation MI at 19 years of age. In addition to the known risk of thrombotic complications associated with a Fontan circulation, potential predisposing factors to thromboembolism in this patient included a right ventricle to left anterior descending coronary connection and a Fontan baffle leak. The patient was treated with device closure of the baffle leak and anticoagulation. This is one of the first reports of an embolic MI in a patient with a Fontan circulation. The optimal method of reducing thromboembolic risk in this patient, and those with a Fontan circulation in general, is complicated and no consensus exists.

An unusually accentuated diastolic anterior motion of the mitral valve in aortic insufficiency

Rudominer, R; Saric, M; Benenstein, R; Skolnick, AH
A 55-year-old woman was diagnosed with endocarditis involving the aortic valve and resulting in moderate aortic insufficiency. Transesophageal and transthoracic echocardiography demonstrated an unusually accentuated diastolic anterior motion of the anterior mitral valve leaflet toward the interventricular septum. The anterior leaflet remained within a few millimeters of the septum throughout diastole, with a narrow jet of aortic insufficiency separating the anterior leaflet from the septum. We hypothesize that the particularly long anterior mitral leaflet was drawn toward the septum during diastole due to the Venturi effect of the aortic insufficiency jet within a narrow ventricular outflow tract. This accentuated diastolic anterior motion may be a diastolic correlate of systolic anterior motion of the mitral valve. (c) 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Clin Ultrasound, 2012.

Association between Advanced Age and Vascular Disease in Different Arterial Territories: A Population Database of Over 3.6 Million Subjects

Savji, Nazir; Rockman, Caron B; Skolnick, Adam; Guo, Yu; Adelman, Mark A; Riles, Thomas; Berger, Jeffrey S
OBJECTIVE: This study sought to determine the relationship between vascular disease in different arterial territories and advanced age. BACKGROUND: Vascular disease in the peripheral circulation is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. There is little data to assess the prevalence of different phenotypes of vascular disease in the very elderly. METHODS: Over 3.6 million self-referred participants from 2003-2008 who completed a medical and lifestyle questionnaire in the United States were evaluated by screening ankle brachial indices <0.9 for peripheral artery disease (PAD), and ultrasound imaging for carotid artery stenosis (CAS) >50% and abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) >3cm. Participants were stratified by decade of life. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to estimate odds of disease in different age categories. RESULTS: Overall, the prevalence of PAD, CAS, and AAA, was 3.7%, 3.9%, and 0.9%, respectively. Prevalence of any vascular disease increased with age (40-50y: 2%; 51-60y: 3.5%; 61-70y: 7.1%; 71-80y: 13.0%; 81-90y: 22.3%; 91-100y: 32.5%; P<0.0001). Prevalence of disease in each vascular territory increased with age. After adjustment for sex, race/ethnicity, body mass index, family history of cardiovascular disease, smoking, diabetes, hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, and exercise, the odds of PAD (OR 2.14, 95% CI 2.12-2.15), CAS (OR 1.80, 95% CI 1.79-1.81), and AAA (OR 2.33, 95% CI 2.30-2.36]) increased with every decade of life. CONCLUSION: There is a dramatic increase in the prevalence of PAD, CAS, and AAA with advanced age. More than 20% and 30% of octo- and nonagenarians, respectively, have vascular disease in at least 1 arterial territory.
