Navaratnarajah M, Mahesh B, Mensah K, et al., 2013, Saphenous vein graft pseudoaneurysm mimicking septic false aneurysm of thoracic aorta, Chirurgia (Turin), Vol: 26, Pages: 177-179, ISSN: 0394-9508
Saphenous vein graft aneurysm or pseudoaneurysm, and thoracic aortic false aneurysm are rare, but potentially lethal complications of cardiac surgery. We report a case of a 63 year old man who presented 5 years after coronary artery bypass grafting with a chronically discharging sternal wound. A thoracic computerized tomogram revealed a large aortic false aneurysm, presumed to be infective from the clinical scenario. Subsequently, this was shown at operation to be a non-infected thrombosed saphenous vein graft pseudoaneurysm. Definitive confirmation of a non-infective pathology prior to surgery could have prompted non-surgical management with radiological intervention.

Dubrey SW, Pearse S, Dahdal M, et al., 2011, Two cases of massive mitral annular calcification mimicking left atrial neoplasms., BMJ Case Rep, Vol: 2011
The authors describe two cases of massive mitral annular calcification, initially picked up on echocardiography and suspected of being neoplastic. Subsequent evaluation by CT scanning confirmed the location, aetiology, structure and diagnosis. Both cases demonstrated large masses, with calcification of varying density. This is likely explained by the presence of the previously reported amorphous caseous material demonstrated to be present within such mass structures. Such a feature is described as caseous degeneration. Both patients described have been managed conservatively with medical therapy, predominantly due to their age and general frailty.

Mittal TK, Barbir M, 2008, Computed tomography in risk assessment for coronary heart disease, CPD Journal Radiology Update, Vol: 7, Pages: 35-43, ISSN: 1750-2519
Coronary heart disease remains the commonest cause of death in Western countries with the incidence rising in developing countries. It is part of the spectrum of cardiovascular diseases which have common end points of myocardial infarction, stroke and death. As these end points frequently occurs suddenly and often in those with no known disease, it is important to identify individuals at higher risk so that preventative measures can be instituted. This article discusses the rational of cardiovascular risk assessment, traditional clinical risk assessment methods and their limitations, and the role of Computed Tomography (CT) for identifying patients at risk.

Dubrey S, Grocott-Mason R, Mittal T, et al., 2008, Massive cardiac invasion by amelanotic melanoma with obstructive clinical features., Postgrad Med J, Vol: 84, Pages: 163-166
Reports of malignant melanoma involving the heart usually describe metastatic spread of pigmented (melanotic) forms of this tumour. We describe, and illustrate, a patient presenting with features related to cardiac tamponade and intracardiac obstruction. Transthoracic echocardiography initially showed a large mass within the right ventricular outflow tract. The full extent of infiltration of this tumour was demonstrated by computed tomography scanning and the specific tumour type by immunohistochemical staining procedures. The case is unusual in relation to the extreme size of this amelanotic melanoma at presentation and the fact that it appears to be a solitary metastasis.

Siegmueller C, Bell A, Mittal T, et al., 2008, Inadvertent aortic cannulation with a pulmonary artery catheter detected by transesophageal echocardiography., Anesth Analg, Vol: 106, Pages: 55-57
Attempted pulmonary artery catheterization via the left internal jugular vein resulted in a misdiagnosis of pulmonary hypertension before transesophageal echocardiography revealed the catheter positioned in the ascending aorta. Inadvertent aortic cannulation through an unusual type of partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection was confirmed with transcatheter fluoroscopy and later at autopsy. Partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection describes one or more of the pulmonary veins draining into the right atrium or its tributaries instead of the left atrium.

Over the past two decades, the central role of the endothelium in the initiation, progression, and clinical sequelae of atherosclerosis has been increasingly recognized. Assessment of the pathobiology of the endothelium and its ability to act as a potential therapeutic target remains an area of active research interest. Whilst endothelial function has been shown to be a marker for risk of cardiovascular events in high-risk groups, there remains considerable debate about the most appropriate way to assess this. We discuss the different clinical methods to assess endothelial function, focusing on flow-mediated dilatation (FMD) of the brachial artery, highlighting the importance of using a standardized methodology, as well as discussing the clinical limitations of using FMD in individuals.

Iqbal MB, Stavri G, Mittal T, et al., 2007, A calcified cardiac mass., Int J Cardiol, Vol: 115, Pages: e126-e128
Cardiac fibromas are benign tumours, often diagnosed in childhood, but rarely they may be diagnosed in adults or the elderly. We present an interesting case of a middle-aged lady presenting with exertional chest pain and breathlessness, who was found to have a heavily calcified mass within the myocardium. With a previous history of chest trauma, a calcified myocardial haematoma was initially suspected. Complete surgical excision led to a total resolution of symptoms. Histological examination confirmed the diagnosis of a cardiac fibroma. Complete excision of cardiac fibromas, where possible, is advised and is associated with excellent survival.
