[Endomycardial biopsy in the diagnosis of various forms of cardiomyopathy in children].

An examination technique is described, including catheterizational endomyocardial biopsy of the left ventricle, used in 10 patients with cardiomyopathy, aged 9 months to 10 years. On the basis of the obtained data it was concluded that the most frequently encountered form of cardiomyopathy in children above 1year of age is infectious-allergic myocarditis. Endocardial thickening is secondary to myocardial changes.

[Myocardial infarction and severe mitral insufficiency. Presentation of an aortic fibroelastoma].

We report the case of a 75-year-old female with atypical chest pain followed by non-Q wave myocardial infarction. At coronary angiography and ventriculography severe left main stenosis and severe mitral regurgitation were evidenced. Transesophageal echocardiography, performed in order to evaluate a possible mitral repair, showed an aortic tumor (11 x 14 mm in diameter) attached to the commissure between the left and non-coronary cusp, without mitral regurgitation. Cardiac magnetic resonance showed a relationship between the tumor and the left coronary ostium which explained a paroxysmal mitral regurgitation. The tumor was surgically removed and the resulting defect in the aortic leaflet was reconstructed with an autologous pericardial patch. The tumor resulted to be a papillary fibroelastoma. The clinical course was uneventful.

[A case of endocardial elastosis in a 5-week old infant].

A case is presented of fulminant endocardial elastosis in a 5-week-old infant. The baby died after four days from the appearance of the first pathological symptoms with evidence of extreme circulatory insufficiency. Of main importance for intravital diagnosis was echocardiographic examination. The autopsy confirmed the diagnosis. The myocardium was hypertrophic without evidence of inflammation. The typical changes for this disease were found in parietal endocardium of both ventricles, both atria, as well as both atrioventricular valves, and aortic valve.
