Case number six I'm going to put a still image
0:03
up here.
0:05
The six was a young man. In fact, this
0:08
was a physician working at one of the medical centers where I
0:11
previously worked. So 30 year
0:14
old young man with acute chest pain
0:17
who presented to the Ed.
0:19
And a cardiacama was performed as shown on this slide
0:22
are.
0:24
Sean access in Long access images from a late galive enhanced
0:27
sequence the correct diagnosis question
0:30
number one up, please is
0:33
it in my Carlin function? Is it
0:36
hypertrophic cardiomyopathy?
0:38
Has the patient had myocardia in
0:41
episode of acute mindcarnitis, is it stress related to cardiomyopathy or
0:44
do we think that the patient has an idiopathic dilated
0:47
cardiomyopathy acute? My heart is excellent.
0:50
This is the patient case of acute. Myocarditis notice
0:53
the sub-epicardial related enhancement in
0:56
the infrarilateral wall these bright spots
0:59
in the lateral wall are in the sub epicondial region
1:02
as opposed to some endocardial region. Some intercontinent
1:05
region typically is affected by ischemic hard disease, whereas
1:08
in regions outside of
1:11
the sub-inducardium, if there's enhancement one has to consider non-ish Community
1:14
Technologies, the young in the young patient with chest
1:17
pain and some people enhancement in
1:20
the National wall, the primary difference diagnosis or
1:23
most likely conditions acute myocarditis.
1:26
installation of acute my conductors
1:28
Sub-epical enhancement in the lateral wall.
1:31
Okay. Next question pertaining to this case is asked
1:34
were the most common geology in
1:37
patients with chest pain and negative ECG. Sorry negative
1:40
troponians and normal coronary arteries. The ECG
1:43
can be abnormal in acute microads can mimic and infant so the
1:46
Communist condition etiology of
1:49
Chest pain with normal coronary arteries and elevated hormones which
1:52
one of the following my current infarction. Yes, Mike
1:55
very rarely in acute Michael infraction. The
1:58
coronary artist can be normal because of an embolic event or the
2:01
abstract relations result Mike. Yes,
2:04
good. My credits the Communist cause of chest
2:07
pain with normal coronary arteries is acute myocardits and
2:10
clinical practice.
2:11
All the other conditions can cause chest pain
2:15
or with normal coronary artery is the commonest presentation will be
2:18
in acute myocarditis. So patients presents to the
2:21
Ed with chest pain mimicking acute MI and
2:24
the crown the first diagnostic pathway
2:28
is to do a catheter and
2:31
geography because they acute Michael infections treatable if
2:34
there's obstructive currently actually see so if the coronary art
2:37
is a normal the most likely diagnosed in a patient with chest pain
2:40
is acute mind connectors.
2:43
Sub apical enhancement in the lateral wall
2:46
is a key finding of figured micronitis. The last
2:49
question pertaining to this case is
2:52
linear midwell enhancement is a septum is a
2:55
feature which of the following conditions. So we've seen sub endocardial enhancement
2:58
in ischemic heart disease. We've seen some epicondyle enhancement
3:01
in acute mycardatus patchy enhancement
3:04
in deception in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
3:07
and all the cases we've seen
3:09
amyloidosis we've not seen as yet of
3:12
it question here is which of the following conditions leads to
3:15
Mid 1 enhancement in the septum
3:18
Yes, the correct answer is a idiopathic dilated
3:21
cardiomyopathy. The majority of the
3:24
patients of egyptic dilate cardiometer will not have enhancement. However, if
3:27
there is enhancement approximately approaching 40 to 50
3:30
percent will have may have midwall enhancement to
3:33
the interventricular section.
3:35
Um, all the other choices are not correct
3:38
hypertrophic cardio Market the rates
3:41
enhancement in the septum patchy midwall enhancement ischemic cardiomabulates,
3:44
a sub endocardial enhancement cardigamallodose
3:47
to see the leads to diffuse enhancement or
3:50
Global sub endocardial announcement eosinophilic. Myocarditis
3:53
can also lead to sub in the current enhancement typically in the apical regions.
3:56
So idiopathic dilated condomatic the mid
3:59
one enhancement is a key finding if present and
4:02
it also allows risk stratification idiopathically to
4:06
come out. This scar is a risk factor for certain cardiac day.
4:09
Over in the bag rejection fractions. Okay, so
4:12
that was case number six, I
4:15
believe and
4:18
think now we are on to the next case is case
4:21
number seven.
