This is a four chamber View and cine
0:03
mode since it's a screen capture from
0:06
a 14% image.
0:08
And that's followed by a short axis capture from
0:11
a cine image. And the last picture is
0:14
a delayed enhancement.
0:15
So delayed enhancement.
0:17
short access
0:19
And a Fortuner cine image still capture
0:22
in a diastolic frame.
0:24
Short access and the delay enhancement. I'm gonna put
0:27
leave the delete a delayed enhancement image up while we showing show
0:30
the poll questions. Can we have the First full question, please?
0:34
Given the history and the history is an older patient
0:37
who presents with left ventricular hypertrophy and diastolic heart
0:40
failure. The correct diagnosis is one of
0:43
these following hypertrophic cardiomyopathy air VC dilated cardiomyopathy
0:46
cardiac amylidosis are families disease.
0:49
Can we have a vote on what the audience thinks
0:52
the correct answer explains?
0:54
Okay, excellent. The majority of the of the
0:57
audience thinks that the correct diagnosis cardiac amyloidosis which indeed it
1:00
is notice that this patient has Global sub endocardial enhancement
1:03
in the left ventricle. It also enhancement in
1:06
the right ventricle. And in this finding in conjunction
1:09
with the left ventricular hypertrophy and the right ventricular wall
1:12
thickening small periodontal effusion bilateral Pearl
1:15
effusions indicates, a diagnosis of
1:18
cardiac amylidosis, the global sub in the
1:21
Carol enhancement is a characteristic and classiful classical for condic
1:24
amylidosis. No other disease conditions in associated
1:27
with left ventricular hypertrophy causes
1:30
that type of global subject account enhancement other patterns
1:33
of late-gal enhancement can be found in cardiacomole dose
1:36
include diffuse enhancement throughout the left ventricular Justin in
1:39
ability to Now The myocardium because there's diffusion enhancement
1:42
throughout the heart and furthermore on the ti
1:45
Scout or find the images The myocardium. It
1:48
may suppressed before the blood pool because the gandolinium kinetics
1:51
are altered and there's more gardening in The myocardium than
1:54
the blood.
1:54
in some case of contact amyloidosis, but in this case, there's
1:57
Global subintercard enhancement, right ventricle enhancement small pericardial
2:01
effusion, circumferential lv1 thickening right
2:04
ventricular wall thickening big Atria small
2:07
narrow, tubular ventricles all features of a restrictive cardiomyopathy
2:10
classical findings for
2:13
For cardiac amoledoses plural effusions
2:17
restrictive cardiomyopathy the common cause of diastolic heart
2:20
failure and restricted cardiomyopathy in an
2:23
older patient is cardiac amyloidosis and indeed. This is
2:26
a case of cardiac amyloidosis. Can we have
2:29
the next question, please?
2:31
The most common clinical presentation cardiac amylose is
2:34
which one of the following there's five choices here.
2:38
Okay, good. Wonderful. All participants gave the
2:42
correct diagnosis which is restrictive cardiomyopathy. So
2:45
amyloid is an infiltrated heart muscle disease. It's stiffens a
2:48
ventricles and presents typically presents as a restrictive cardiomyopathy cystolic
2:51
functions preserved in the early stages of the disease and
2:54
typically presents with diastolic heart failure and restricted cardiomyopathy. In
2:57
fact a very common cause of diastolic heart
3:00
failure, if other causes such as hypertension are excluded
3:03
in all the patients diabetes excluded is cardiac amylidosis.
3:06
In fact, it's an under diagnose disease increasing it
3:09
more recognizing it more increasingly in
3:12
this age two common types are ATT our amyloid
3:15
and Al amyloid the two
3:18
cannot be distinguished 100% by Kanye
3:21
Mr. If an ATT if attr amyloid is
3:24
is considered likely on the base of clinical features a
3:27
powerful State bones and is likely to be diagnostic but
3:30
County MRI plays a very important role particularly when
3:33
Echo suggests the disease or it's not conclusive the
3:36
presence of global Southern.
3:38
Enhancement or diffuse enhancement is highly suggestive of County Common doses
3:41
in a patients with the patient left ventricular hypertrophy pretty
3:44
clear. If there's other morphological features
3:47
into atrial septal thickening is it can
3:50
also be a finding dilated Atria narrow tubular
3:53
ventricles periodontal effusions plural effusions all morphological
3:56
features of cardiacomolidosis.
3:59
Okay, so that's a case of cardiacomolidosis not uncommon to
4:02
see this in clinical practice in cardiacomorphically in an older patient with
4:05
left ventricular hypertrophy.
