Amyloidosis and device therapy: an open debate

2017

Cardiac involvement represents a critical prognostic factor in amyloidosis, as it represents a leading cause of morbidity and mortality, in primary light chain amyloidosis, in hereditary and also in wild-type transthyretin amyloidosis. A 54-year-old male was admitted to Emergency Room with complaints of dyspnea, palpitations and diaphoresis.

Effects of Essential Hypertension on coronary Microcirculation: Focus on a Population of Hypertensives Affected by Microvascular Angina

2012

A correlation between essential hypertension and the establishmentof myocardial ischemia is nowadays universally accepted. Coronary atherosclerosis is deemed to be the most important process through which the capability of coronary district to supply a blood flow consistent with myocardial needs can be impaired, until the onset of an anginal syndrome. In this study, we verified whether hypertensives’ coronaries, seen by performing an angiographic study, are properly definable as normal, even in presence of an overt exertional angina, or if they should rather be barely defined as “macroscopically unharmed”, through the clues of a microvascular alteration
