The cardiac complications (arrhythmias, myocardial infarction, and
congestive cardiac failure) were observed in 32%, 4%, and 12% of our sample.
Half of patients with Ebstein's anamoly were among neonates and infants with cyanosis and

A multidisciplinary team (MDT) meeting discussed the feasibility of cardiac surgery given the severity of

A diagnosis of ALCAPA syndrome was made as a result of diagnostic angiography and with clinical electrocardiographical and echocardiographical findings in a 28 days old patient with dilated cardiomyopahty (DCM) and
congestive cardiac failure. By presenting this case it was aimed to emphasize that ALCAPA syndrome can lead to DCM even during the newborn period and to increase the awarenes of this disease.
Chest radiographs demonstrated significant cardiac enlargement with signs of
congestive cardiac failure (Fig.
The certificate says the primary cause of death was
congestive cardiac failure, with the secondary cause being type 2 diabetes.
Cardiac toxicity is one example where a drug that prolongs life from a cancer perspective can lead to undesirable late effects, and there are compelling data suggesting that the use of anthracycline-based adjuvant chemotherapy leads to an increased risk of
congestive cardiac failure later in life--particularly in older women exposed to anthracycline-containing chemotherapy [10,11].
Anaemia among 157 patients with
congestive cardiac failure (CCF) was studied by Kuule, Seremba and Freers.
(4) The usual signs of an AAA with an ACF are high-output
congestive cardiac failure (CCF) with a widened pulse pressure and relatively low diastolic pressure (as occurred in this patient), a continuous abdominal murmur or bruit, a pulsatile abdominal mass and renal insufficiency.
Examination revealed a blood pressure of 160/85 mmHg, grade 1 hypertensive retinopathy and features of
congestive cardiac failure (CCF), but mild pulmonary oedema.
Pathologist Dr Andrew Dalton said she died of bronchial pneumonia and
congestive cardiac failure.
She had a past history of vascular dementia with dysphagia and behavioral abnormalities, ischemic heart disease with atrial fibrillation, and
congestive cardiac failure. In addition, she also suffered from type 2 diabetes mellitus, hypertension, osteoporosis, bilateral osteoarthritis of the knees, and an old traumatic fracture of the left humeral neck.
A post-mortem examination carried out after Mr Buckton's body was flown home showed Mr Buckton had suffered
