Concomitant acute myopericarditis and multiple systemic arteriovenous thrombosis as a rare manifestation of post-COVID-19 syndrome.

Initially recognized as a respiratory system disease, COVID-19 has been found to be more of a systemic illness with multiorgan involvement. Recently, there are increasing reports of persistent and prolonged effects after acute COVID-19 infection, mainly on the cardiovascular system. Here, we report the case of a young man with myopericarditis and multiple systemic arteriovenous thrombosis developing several weeks after flu-like symptoms, with antigens indicating a past COVID-19 infection. This case highlights the multisystemic involvement of SARS-CoV-2, raising the possibility of concomitant myopericarditis and multiple systemic thrombosis after a COVID-19 non-severe infection. To our knowledge, there are no previous reports of such a case.

Acute double coronary occlusion and its misleading presentation: An unusual case report.

Acute simultaneous double coronary occlusion is an extremely rare condition with an unspecific presentation. We report a case of a 57-year-old male, with undiagnosed diabetes mellitus, presenting with acute epigastralgia and vomiting associated with dynamic electrocardiographic changes. He was hemodynamically stable. Emergency coronary angiogram showed a total occlusion of both proximal left circumflex and mid left anterior descending coronary artery. Since the EKG indicated minimal ST-segment elevation in the lateral leads as well as an ST depression in the inferior leads, we performed a percutaneous coronary intervention of both the LCx and LAD, using a floppy guidewire. Similar cases of multiple simultaneous coronary occlusions are reported in literature, yet the accurate incidence and physiopathology of this occurrence is still uncertain. Although this condition is associated with serious complications, our case evolved favorably due to prompt management.

Management and outcome of hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy in pregnant women: a case report.

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a common inherited cardiomyopathy, with an estimated prevalence of 1 in 500 people. Despite overall favorable outcomes with modern treatment and early diagnosis of disease, adverse complications could occur during times of physiological stress like pregnancy. Complications of HCM include sudden cardiac death, heart failure, and arrhythmia. We report the case of a 32-year-old pregnant woman with obstructive HCM, presenting with recurrent episodes of ventricular arrhythmia despite medical therapy. This case exhibits how close monitoring and proper management during pregnancy according to the latest recommendations, resulted in a successful and uneventful delivery.

Right-Sided Cardiac Hydatid Cyst Complicated With Pulmonary Embolization: A Pediatric Case Report.

Echinococcosis is an endemic zoonotic parasitic infection found in Morocco, due to Echinococcus granulosus. Cardiac localization is a rare form, presenting in various ways. The right heart is an uncommon site of cardiac involvement. We report a case of a right-sided cardiac hydatid cyst complicated with multiple pulmonary embolism, revealed by dyspnea at rest, in a 15-year-old male. The patient successfully underwent surgical removal which confirmed the diagnosis. This case report demonstrates one of the various clinical presentations of this condition, and the importance of early treatment in order to prevent its potentially fatal complications, particularly in the young.
