Fabry's Disease With Lvot Obstruction: Diagnosis And Management, Jacob Blount, James Wu, Matthew Martinez

James K Wu MD

A 46-year-old male was diagnosed with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and severe left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction. Genetic testing revealed that this was a "mimic of HCM" and the true diagnosis was Fabry's disease, although there were no other clinical features of Fabry's. Despite maximal medical therapy he remained symptomatic from the outflow tract gradient and required surgical myectomy for symptom relief. This case illustrates the diagnosis of an HCM mimic by genetic testing.

Mast Cell Stabilization Decreases Cardiomyocyte And Lv Function In Dogs With Isolated Mitral Regurgitation., Betty Pat, Cheryl Killingsworth, Yuanwen Chen, James D Gladden, Greg Walcott, Pamela C Powell, Thomas Denney, Himanshu Gupta, Ravi Desai, Michael Tillson, A Ray Dillon, Louis J Dell'italia

Ravi V Desai MD

BACKGROUND: Mast cells are increased in isolated mitral regurgitation (MR) in the dog and may mediate extracellular matrix loss and left ventricular (LV) dilatation. We tested the hypothesis that mast cell stabilization would attenuate LV remodeling and improve function in the MR dog.

METHODS AND RESULTS: MR was induced in adult dogs randomized to no treatment (MR, n = 5) or to the mast cell stabilizer, ketotifen (MR + MCS, n = 4) for 4 months. LV hemodynamics were obtained at baseline and after 4 months of MR and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was performed at sacrifice. MRI-derived, serial, short-axis …
