Mashup Score: 161
Apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (AHCM) is a rare phenotypic variant of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), most commonly seen in Asian men (Yamaguchi syndrome). Apical HCM is characterized by hypertrophy predominantly affecting the cardiac apex, with an “ace of spades”–shaped left ventricular (LV) cavity best seen on the 4-chamber view of a transthoracic echocardiogram (TTE). However, TTE can be falsely negative in 30% of AHCM cases, largely due to difficulties in delineating endocardial border.

Mashup Score: 50Use of Three-Dimensional Intracardiac Echocardiography Catheter in the Evaluation of Prosthetic Pulmonary Valves after Transcatheter Replacement - 3 month(s) ago
Transcatheter pulmonary valve replacement (TPVR) is commonly performed in patients with congenital heart disease as a safe alternative to replacement via open heart surgery. Intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) is a useful technique for evaluating multiple structures that are difficult to assess by other echocardiographic techniques, particularly the pulmonary valve. To our knowledge, the use of three-dimensional (3D) ICE catheters to evaluate prosthetic valves after TPVR has not been reported. Three-dimensional ICE catheters offer a comprehensive evaluation of transcatheter-deployed pulmonary valves through 3D, 3D color, xPlane, and multiplane reconstruction.

Mashup Score: 158Severe Aortic Regurgitation From Sinus of Valsalva Aneurysm Prolapse - 4 month(s) ago
Sinus of Valsalva aneurysm (SVA) results from weakness of the elastic lamina at the junction of the aortic media and annulus fibrosus. Sinus of Valsalva aneurysm is usually asymptomatic until rupture. We present a case of an unruptured SVA causing severe aortic regurgitation and decompensated heart failure.

Mashup Score: 75Echocardiographic Versus Invasive Aortic Valve Gradients in Different Clinical Scenarios - 5 month(s) ago
The role of echocardiography in deriving transvalvular mean gradients from transaortic velocities in aortic stenosis (AS) and in structural valve degeneration (SVD) is well established. However, reports following surgical aortic valve replacement, post–transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), and valve-in-valve-TAVR (ViV-TAVR) have cautioned against the use of echocardiography-derived mean gradients to assess normal functioning bioprosthesis due to discrepancy compared with invasive measures in a phenomenon called discordance.
