[A retroaortic anomalous left coronary artery].

We report a 67-years-old patient with angina pectoris and positive treadmill test. In the coronary arteriography the left coronary artery arose from the right coronary sinus of Valsalva through an independent ostium and followed a retroaortic course. Coronary artery disease was no demonstrated, so we thought that the myocardial ischaemia shown in the treadmill test, was due to the anomalous origin of the left coronary artery. Surgical treatment was recommended.

[The long-term evolution of patients with senile aortic stenosis undergoing percutaneous valve dilatation].

The long-term follow-up of 35 patients with mean age of 74.3 +/- 8 years (64-86) who underwent percutaneous aortic valvuloplasty (PAV) is presented. The mean duration of the follow-up study was 33 months (range 1-48). Global mortality was 42% (14 patients) and was related to post-PAV aortic valvular area (47% mortality in less than 0.7 cm2 area group vs 28% in greater than or equal to 0.7 cm2 group) and left ventricular ejection fraction (67% in EF less than 35% group vs 35% in EF greater than or equal to 35% group). The actuarial probability of remaining alive and free of symptoms and of cardiac surgery or new PAV was 57, 41, 33, and 20% at 1, 2, 3 and 4 years. After PAV clinical improvement was obtained in most of the patients (68%), but only 42% of those with successful dilatation remain asymptomatic after a 24 months period (85 +/- 28 mmHg, p = NS). Transvalvular gradient studied by Doppler decreased immediately after PAV (92.8 +/- 26 mmHg vs 51 +/- 16 mmHg, p less than 0.001), but returned to baseline values after 12 months. These results show that PAV yields a clinical improvement in most of the patients, but this improvement is transitory, does not modify the natural history of the disease and has a high degree of restenosis. Thus, its use must be limited to a reduced group of patients who are not candidates for cardiac surgery.

[Recurrent pericarditis with effusion caused by Q fever. Presentation of a case].

We present a case report of recurrent pericarditis with pericardial effusion and high levels of Coxiella burnetti antibodies (phase II), excluding other possible etiologies. The rarity of this disorder is commented and the necessity of be considered this etiological possibility in a second time, particularly in patients who are susceptible to suffer Q-Fever disease.

[Heart hydatidosis diagnoses with bidimensional echocardiography].

A case of calcificated intramyocardiac hydatid cyst is presented. The initial diagnosis was coronary artery disease and the onset was chest pain and typical abnormalities of the electrocardiogram. The diagnosis of hydatid disease was suspected from chest roentgenogram and confirmed by two-dimensional echocardiography and left ventriculography. Coronary arteriography was normal and surgical treatment successfully carried out.
