Research paper thumbnail of Acute Fulminant Myocarditis Successfully Bridged to Recovery with Left Ventricular Assist Device and Complicated by Flail Mitral Valve

With prompt recognition and appropriate management, complete recovery of ventricular function is likely within a few weeks. We introduce a 28-year-old man with acute fulminant myocarditis, who experienced circulatory collapse following acute angina and dyspnea. The patient had high troponin levels with low ejection fraction and normal coronary arteries. He was successfully bridged to recovery with a left ventricular assist device but was complicated by flail mitral valve. Perioperative myocardial biopsy was also compatible with myocarditis. At 4 months' follow-up, the patient was stable with functional capacity I according to the New York Heart Association's classification. A possible mechanism for this very rare complication is the rupture of the chordal structure secondary to the fragility of an inflamed subvalvular apparatus stretched by a recovered ventricle.

The severe aortic coarctation was repaired by interposing a synthetic graft between the distal ascending aorta and the descending aorta. We first repaired the coarctation with the 38-year-old man on cardiopulmonary bypass, before aortic cross-clamping, in order to shorten the cross-clamp time.

Research paper thumbnail of Comparison of Enoximone with Dopamine after Protamine Reversal of Heparin

Twelve dogs were intubated and given 300 IU/kg heparin. A femoral artery cannula and two venous cannulae were inserted, and the animals were placed on hypothermic (28°C) cardiopulmonary bypass. The hearts were arrested for one hour with cold crystalloid cardioplegic solution and the animals were rewarmed to 36°C. After weaning from bypass, the heparin was neutralized with 4.5 mg/kg protamine sulfate. The dogs were divided into 3 groups: a control group (group C) received only protamine, another group (group D) received dopamine 10 μg/kg/min and protamine, and the third group (group E) received enoximone 10 μg/kg/min and protamine. Cardiac output was 1,320 ± 50 mL/min in group C, 1,420 ± 30 mL/min in group D, and 1,540 ± 10 mL/min in group E. We concluded that enoximone is an effective drug for relieving the adverse effects of protamine on the myocardium.
