Introdução: A síndrome hipereosinofílica é caracterizada por uma produção aumentada e contínua de eosinófilos e pode levar a lesões teciduais em múltiplos órgãos, como consequência da infiltração eosinofílica. Os pacientes apresentam eosinofilia absoluta no sangue periférico (> 1.500 eo...
ABSTRACT Non-compaction cardiomyopathy is a rare form of cardiac disease that presents with symptoms of congestive heart failure, ventricular arrhythmias or thromboembolism. Within the Caribbean setting, there are limited data regarding its existence. We present a case of non-compaction cardiomyopathy, d...
Abstract Background: Anthracycline generates progressive left ventricular dysfunction associated with a poor prognosis. Objectives: The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether layer-specific strain analysis could assess the subclinical left ventricular dysfunction after exposure to anthracyclin...

Abstract Many non-invasive methods, such as imaging tests, have been developed aiming to add a contribution to existing studies in estimating patients' prognosis after myocardial injury. This prognosis is proportional to myocardial viability, which is evaluated in coronary artery disease and left ventric...

El origen anómalo aislado de la arteria coronaria derecha desde la arteria pulmonar principal es una anomalía congénita rara y se han notificado pocos casos en la población pediátrica. En este artículo informamos el caso asintomático de un lactante varón de dos meses de edad al que se le diagnost...
Some studies have shown the role played by matrix metalloproteinases and their inhibitors in doxorubicin cardiotoxicity. In this study, we sought to investigate how plasma and myocardial MMP 2 and 9 perform in rabbits with doxorubicin-induced cardiomyopathy, searching for a correlation between the activi...
Abstract Penetrating cardiac trauma has been increasing in clinical experience and is joined to important morbidity and mortality. A case of a 38-year-old female with history of postpartum depression was reported, admitted to our department for cardiac tamponade due to penetrating self-inflicted multiple...

Abstract Introduction: Current guidelines state that patients with severe mitral regurgitation should be treated in reference centers with a high reparability rate, low mortality rate, and durable results. Objective: To analyze our global experience with the treatment of organic mitral regurgitation fr...
Abstract Introduction: Fungal endocarditis is reported less frequently than bacterial endocarditis, with an incidence of 0-12% of the total pediatric infective endocarditis. Objective: In this study, the incidence of infective endocarditis in Candida bloodstream infections in a tertiary hospital during...
