Cardiac mass with calcification forming pulmonary atresia in utero; a case of fetal endocarditis.

Jin BK, Kim GB, Kwon BS, Bae EJ, Noh CI, Kim WH.Author information Department of Pediatrics, Seoul National University Children's Hospital, 101 Daehak-ro, Jongno-gu, Seoul, 110-744, South Korea.AbstractFetal intracardiac mass with calcification is very rare and not well reported. The authors treated a patient with a cardiac mass presumed to be infective endocarditis in the tricuspid valve and pulmonary valve positions with postcalcification echocardiographic shadow forming pulmonary atresia. Although postnatal consecutive blood cultures for bacterial and fungal pathogens tested negative, serial follow-up echocardiograms and surgical findings suggested infective endocarditis. This report describes a very rare case of presumed fetal infective endocarditis presenting as a calcified mass, which was successfully treated by partial resection without significant morbidity.

Shadow enhancers flanking the HoxB cluster direct dynamic Hox expression in early heart and endoderm development.

Nolte C, Jinks T, Wang X, Martinez Pastor MT, Krumlauf R.Author information Stowers Institute for Medical Research, Kansas City, MO 64110, USA.AbstractThe products of Hox genes function in assigning positional identity along the anterior-posterior body axis during animal development. In mouse embryos, Hox genes located at the 3' end of HoxA and HoxB complexes are expressed in nested patterns in the progenitors of the secondary heart field during early cardiogenesis and the combined activities of both of these clusters are required for proper looping of the heart. Using Hox bacterial artificial chromosomes (BACs), transposon reporters, and transgenic analyses in mice, we present the identification of several novel enhancers flanking the HoxB complex which can work over a long range to mediate dynamic reporter expression in the endoderm and embryonic heart during development. These enhancers respond to exogenously added retinoic acid and we have identified two retinoic acid response elements (RAREs) within these control modules that play a role in potentiating their regulatory activity. Deletion analysis in HoxB BAC reporters reveals that these control modules, spread throughout the flanking intergenic region, have regulatory activities that overlap with other local enhancers. This suggests that they function as shadow enhancers to modulate the expression of genes from the HoxB complex during cardiac development. Regulatory analysis of the HoxA complex reveals that it also has enhancers in the 3' flanking region which contain RAREs and have the potential to modulate expression in endoderm and heart tissues. Together, the similarities in their location, enhancer output, and dependence on retinoid signaling suggest that a conserved cis-regulatory cassette located in the 3' proximal regions adjacent to the HoxA and HoxB complexes evolved to modulate Hox gene expression during mammalian cardiac and endoderm development. This suggests a common regulatory mechanism, whereby the conserved control modules act over a long range on multiple Hox genes to generate nested patterns of HoxA and HoxB expression during cardiogenesis.

[Concomitant Off-pump Coronary Artery Bypass and Left Lower Lobectomy for Lung Cancer;Report of a Case].

Okamura K, Kamiyama K, Kimura M, Morizumi S, Kawata M, Suematsu Y.Author information Department of Thoracic Surgery, Tsukuba Memorial Hospital, Tsukuba, Japan.AbstractA 58-year-old man had an abnormal shadow in the left lower lobe on his computed tomography, and also had stenosis of the coronary arteries. Preoperative coronary angiography revealed severe stenosis of right coronary artery (RCA), left anterior descending artery (LAD), and left circumflex branch(LCx). The diagnosis of lung cancer was made by transbronchial lung biopsy. Initially, we scheduled to undergo surgery of both the heart and lung in 2stage operation. However, before surgery, the infection of cavity was caused by tumor growing, so we performed the surgery in 1stage operation. Off-pump coronary artery bypass and left lower lobectomy with lymph node dissection was concomitantly performed. The postoperative course was uneventful. He was discharged after confirming the patent bypass grafting on the 13th postoperative day. Histopathological diagnosis was squamous cell carcinoma without lymph node metastasis. Lung cancer and ischemic heart disease can be surgically treated simultaneously, benefitting selected patients.
