Large Coronary Arteries Mean No Chance Of A Heart Attack, Right? An Acute Myocardial Infarction In The Setting Of Holding Anticoagulation For A Routine Colonoscopy, Nathan Brewster Do, Jennifer Nesfeder, Ryan Murphy Do, Brian J. Holahan, Syed Rafay Ali Sabzwari Apr 2019

Large Coronary Arteries Mean No Chance Of A Heart Attack, Right? An Acute Myocardial Infarction In The Setting Of Holding Anticoagulation For A Routine Colonoscopy, Nathan Brewster Do, Jennifer Nesfeder, Ryan Murphy Do, Brian J. Holahan, Syed Rafay Ali Sabzwari

Department of Medicine

Coronary artery ectasia (CAE) is an uncommon pathology, which is sometimes incidentally found on left heart catheterization (LHC). CAE is occasionally treated with systemic anticoagulation to prevent thrombosis or progression of the clot in the coronary arteries. We present a 63-year-old male with known CAE on warfarin who presented to the hospital with myocardial infarction after a routine colonoscopy for which anticoagulation was held. His myocardial infarction was attributed to a likely coronary thromboembolic event. This case highlights the need for consideration of bridging anticoagulation therapy before and after procedures in patients with CAE to prevent adverse coronary events.

Unusual Case Of Obstructive Jaundice., Rajesh Essrani Md, Eric Nellis Md, Patrick Hickey Do, Hiral N. Shah Md

Department of Medicine

Most malignant obstructive jaundice arises from primary periampullary tumors and rarely from metastatic cancer of the head and neck. A 60-year-old male was diagnosed with obstructive jaundice due to metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the tonsil. Only 12 cases of small bowel metastasis from the head and neck have been reported. Most of them originate from laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma, and only one case reported tonsillar cancer metastasizing to the ileum. Our case is the first one, to the best of our knowledge, to illustrate tonsillar cancer with metastasis to the duodenum causing obstructive jaundice.

Atrial Myxoma Presenting With Palpitations: A Case Report, George Prousi Md, Joseph Moran Do, Ross Biggs Do

Department of Medicine

Abstract

Atrial myxomas are a rare phenomenon and although benign, primary neoplasms of the heart can be burdensome depending on their location. Clinical symptoms are caused through a variety of mechanisms including conduction disturbances, obstruction, and valvular interference. Size and symptom development are strongly correlated and can almost always be detected by the use of echocardiography, magnetic resonance imaging or computed tomography. This is a case of a 62-year-old female with no significant past medical history presented to our facility with complaints of palpitations and associated dizziness for three months.

Introduction

Atrial myxomas are the most common benign primary neoplasm …
