Colonic artery angiography revealed angiodysplasia as the bleeding site, and echocardiography showed aortic valve stenosis. A decrease in the high molecular weight von Willebrand factor multimers, which are known to play an important role in hemostasis, was observed, and Heyde syndrome was diagnosed. We selected colectomy instead of aortic valve replacement because the patient had undergone two open heart surgeries. Following colectomy, the patient showed a good clinical course without recurrent gastrointestinal bleeding. Colectomy might serve as a therapeutic option for Heyde syndrome after the precise site of angiodysplasia is detected by angiography.

Twenty-one patients with HOCM underwent cine and delayed contrast-enhanced MR imaging. The regional effects of ablated myocardium as well as remote and global effects of PTSMA were assessed. The ablated interventricular septal myocardium was hyperenhanced and thinned after successful PTSMA. Decreases in posterior wall thickness and myocardial mass were observed more than 12 weeks after PTSMA. Decreases in posterior wall thickness, myocardial mass, and left atrial diameter were observed in patients without myocardial hyperenhancement before PTSMA. Neither reduction nor increase in hyperenhancing myocardium, except for the ablated myocardium, was observed after PTSMA. Cardiac MR imaging showed regional, remote, and global effects of PTSMA on the myocardium in HOCM and might indicate patients with a good global response to PTSMA.

Fifty patients (pts), 34 hyperlipemic (HL) and 16 normal lipids (NL), aged ≤65 year with coronary diameter stenosis >25% were followed monthly. LDL-cholesterol (LDL-C) level was aimed to control below 130 mg/dl in HL patients on strict diet and pravastatin 10–30 mg/day, also LDL-apheresis in a patient with familier hyperlipemia. Repeat coronary angiography was performed in average 14 months after AMI onset, and altogether 142 lesions from 34 HL and 16 NL were analyzed quantitatively using cinedensitometry. Lesions which PTCA wire crossed were separately assessed. Average serum LDL-C levels improved from 166 to 117 mg/dl on drug and diet (p < 0.001) in HL. Seven out of 92 non-IRL (7.6%) exhibited progression defined as ≥0.5 mm decrease of minimum lesion diameter, and 9 IRL (9.8%) did regression ≥0.5 mm increase. Whereas thirty five IRL showed significantly more incidence of regression (9 sites, 25.7% p = 0.021) and similar rate of progression (3 pts, 8.6%). An improvement of LDL-C/HDL-C ratio was more prominent in patients with IRL regression compared with those showing progression or no change (p < 0.05).Thus the IRL was found in favor of more regression than non-IRL, and the magnitude of lesion regression can be expected according to the effect of lipid lowering treatment in patients after AMI.

The present stLJdy was undertaken Ln order to verify whether short periods of I can initiate AP and, if so, to identify a cut-off point beyond which the process is clearly triggered.

Between 2005 and 2012, we enrolled 282 183 adult patients with bystander-witnessed out-of-hospital cardiac arrest from the All-Japan Utstein Registry. Prehospital resuscitation duration was calculated as the time interval from call receipt to return of spontaneous circulation in cases achieving prehospital return of spontaneous circulation or from call receipt to hospital arrival in cases not achieving prehospital return of spontaneous circulation. In each of 4 groups stratified by initial cardiac arrest rhythm (shockable versus nonshockable) and bystander resuscitation (presence versus absence), we calculated minimum prehospital resuscitation duration, defined as the length of resuscitation efforts in minutes required to achieve ≥99% sensitivity for the primary end point, favorable 30-day neurological outcome after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. Prehospital resuscitation duration to achieve prehospital return of spontaneous circulation ranged from 1 to 60 minutes. Longer prehospital resuscitation duration reduced the likelihood of favorable neurological outcome (adjusted odds ratio, 0.84; 95% confidence interval, 0.838-0.844). Although the frequency of favorable neurological outcome was significantly different among the 4 groups, ranging from 20.0% (shockable/bystander resuscitation group) to 0.9% (nonshockable/bystander resuscitation group; P&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;lt;0.001), minimum prehospital resuscitation duration did not differ widely among the 4 groups (40 minutes in the shockable/bystander resuscitation group and the shockable/no bystander resuscitation group, 44 minutes in the nonshockable/bystander resuscitation group, and 45 minutes in the nonshockable/no bystander resuscitation group). On the basis of time intervals from the shockable arrest groups, prehospital resuscitation efforts should be continued for at least 40 minutes in all adults with bystander-witnessed out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.

BAV is effective for several clinical conditions, but fatal complications including acute severe aortic insufficiency may occur, although rare. We report a case of acute aortic insufficiency occurring during BAV, which was bailed out remarkably by the catheter method. When acute aortic insufficiency occurs during BAV, this simple and effective procedure should be attempted before conversion to emergency surgery.
