1. Fulminant Giant Cell Myocarditis and Cardiogenic Shock: An Unusual Presentation of Malignant Thymoma

Author

Deepak Koul, Manreet Kanwar, Dane Jefic, Anuradha Kolluru, Tejwant Singh, Sunil Dhar, Preetham Kumar, and Gerald Cohen

Subjects
Diseases of the circulatory (Cardiovascular) system, RC666-701
Abstract

Malignant thymoma is rarely associated with giant cell myocarditis. We present a case study that illustrates this association and cardiogenic shock with underlying tamponade. The dramatic presentation of this scenario has not been previously described.

2. Chronic Kidney Disease and Mortality in Implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillator Recipients

Author

Abstract

Incidence of sudden cardiac death (SCD) in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) remains high. Limited data is available about whether implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) can prevent arrhythmic death in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). The purpose of this retrospective study was to determine the impact of CKD on all-cause and sudden cardiac death in ICD recipients. We evaluated 441 consecutive patients who underwent ICD implantation at our center between 1994 and 2002. We found that mortality rate was higher in patients with eGFR

Abstract

Incidence of sudden cardiac death (SCD) in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) remains high. Limited data is available about whether implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) can prevent arrhythmic death in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). The purpose of this retrospective study was to determine the impact of CKD on all-cause and sudden cardiac death in ICD recipients. We evaluated 441 consecutive patients who underwent ICD implantation at our center between 1994 and 2002. We found that mortality rate was higher in patients with eGFR<60 mL/min and those with ESRD on hemodialysis (43%,n=69/162and 54%,n=12/22, resp.) than in patients with eGFR≥60 mL/min (23%,n=58/257;P<.0005). The SCD rate was also higher in the patients with ESRD (50%) than in CKD patients not on dialysis (10.2%;P<.0005). Mortality rate for single-chamber ICDs was 56.8% in comparison with dual-chamber ICDs (38.1%) and for biventricular ICDs (5.0%) (P<.0005).
