Acute ischemic stroke, active malignancy and non-bacterial thrombotic endocarditis: an exploratory prospective observational study

Athanasios Frydas, Ela Marie Akay, Hong Ran, Kudrat Rakhimov et autres

About 3-10% of patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) have active cancer. Malignancy-associated hypercoagulability (MAH) is an established cause of cancer-associated stroke. Nonbacterial thrombotic endocarditis (NBTE) is a severe manifestation of MAH. However, no prospective study has examined its prevalence and anticoagulation …

Right ventricular free-wall strain-based risk stratification for temporary mechanical circulatory support in cardiogenic shock

Chong Bin Lee, Andreas Merz, Daniel-Armando Morris, Matthias Schneider-Reigbert et autres

INTRODUCTION: Early identification of patients with cardiogenic shock (CS) who will require temporary mechanical circulatory support (MCS) remains challenging. Right ventricular (RV) dysfunction is common in CS and affects haemodynamic stability. RV free wall longitudinal strain (RV FWLS) is a sensitive marker …

Reversal of Paraneoplastic Non-Bacterial Thrombotic Endocarditis with Heparin and Targeted Cancer Therapy: A Case Report

Collin Goetze, Nikolaj Frost, Ingo Hilgendorf, Daniel Armando Morris et autres

Background and Clinical Significance: Non-bacterial thrombotic endocarditis (NBTE), historically termed marantic endocarditis, is a severe manifestation of cancer-associated hypercoagulability characterized by sterile valvular vegetations and a high risk of systemic embolization. While direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) have become the standard of care …

Failure of Direct Oral Anticoagulation in Preventing Left Ventricular Thrombus Progression After Myocardial Infarction: A Case Report

Andreas Merz, Daniel Armando Morris, Henryk Dreger, Ingo Hilgendorf et autres

Background and Clinical Significance: Left ventricular thrombus formation after acute coronary syndrome represents a severe complication. Comprehensive echocardiographic assessment of the entire ventricle is essential, as regional wall motion abnormalities predispose to thrombus development. Although vitamin K antagonists have traditionally been the …

Transthoracic signs of left atrial cardiomyopathy predict presence of left atrial thromboembolic substrate

Athanasios Frydas, A Sokour, Fabian Spinka, Victor Schweiger et autres

Background Transthoracic echocardiographic (TTE) parameters of left atrial (LA) size and function are independent risk factors for cardioembolic events. Nevertheless, they are not included in current decision trees evaluating necessity of transesophageal echocardiography (TOE) before rhythm control. Objective To evaluate whether TTE-assessed …
