We report an interesting case of a 66-year-old man with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) with bilateral coronary ostial stenosis cardiovascular syphilis complicated by aortic regurgitation (AR). A 12-lead electrocardiogram and blood tests on arrival suggested AMI, and echocardiography showed moderate AR. Emergency coronary angiography showed bilateral coronary ostial stenosis. The patient underwent emergency surgical treatment, coronary artery bypass grafting, and aortic valve replacement with a bioprosthetic valve. On arrival, rapid plasma reagin and Treponema pallidum hemagglutination tests were 172.2- and 1187.5-fold, respectively. These results suggested cardiovascular syphilis, which was confirmed by pathological findings. The postoperative course was uneventful and the patient was transferred to another hospital on postoperative day 25. This patient received intravenous penicillin for 2 weeks and subsequently oral amoxicillin. When both AR and coronary ostial stenosis are found, it is necessary
INTRODUCTION. Cardiovascular syphilis remains a serious threat to life and health despite its decreasing incidence and the increasingly efficient armamentarium of the cardiologist. This study was undertaken to determine the prevalence of cardiovascular syphilis in similar hospital populations, to describe changing methods of diagnosis and treatment, and to determine, insofar as possible, the effect of such treatment on the course of the disease.. According to the records of the Los Angeles County Hospital for 1945-1954, 1,002 persons were admitted during that period with diagnoses of cardiovascular syphilis, blood vessel syphilis and/or aneurysm of thoracic aorta. Charts of 954 of these ...
To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) on RCA ostial stenosis after re-do AVR. Coronary ostial stenosis after AVR is rare and occurs most often in the left main coronary artery, but the RCA can also be affected. An autopsy report revealed that thickened tissue in the aortic root and proximal coronary artery showed fibrosis and intimal thickening and no evidence of atherosclerosis on histological examination [1]. This phenomenon has been proposed to be due to turbulent flow around the prosthetic valve leading to obstruction of the coronary ostia. Fibrotic thickened tissue protrusion was also observed in our case, which was confirmed with homogeneous low echogenicity on IVUS.. Although the pathophysiological mechanism of coronary ostial stenosis after AVR is not well understood, various mechanisms could have mutually influenced this case according to previous studies. First, there could be micro-injury and local hyperplastic ...
In general, Coronary ostial stenosis rarely occurs in patient after the replacement of the aortic valve. It takes place after the aortic valve replacement

We report the case of a 55-year-old woman with aortitis syndrome. She was admitted to our hospital because of repeated chest pain and syncope. An electrocardiogram and the laboratory data suggested acute myocardial infarction, and coronary angiography showed severe bilateral coronary ostial stenosis. No valvular disease was observed. Aortitis syndrome was suspected because of the stenosis of the brachiocephalic artery in addition to the bilateral coronary ostial stenosis, while the patient did not have elevated C-reactive protein iCRP jand erythrocyte sedimentation rate iESR). Coronary artery bypass grafting was performed, and the patient fs postoperative course was uneventful. However, she again experienced chest pain 9 months after surgery due to aortic regurgitation iAR jand diffuse narrowing change of the left internal thoracic artery graft.

A 34-year-old Coloured man had typical angina pectoris which was unresponsive to medical therapy. There was no history of factors predisposing to atherosclerosis apart from moderate cigarette smoking. A resting ECG suggested a previous nontransmural anterolateral myocardial infarction, and a submaximal effort test was strongly positive for myocardial ischaemia. Serological investigation for syphilis was positive, and initially the possibility that coronary ostial stenosis was the cause of his symptoms was strongly considered. Cardiac catheterization and selective coronary angiography showed evidence of an anterolateral myocardial infarction and that there was no coronary ostial stenosis, but total occlusion of the left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) proximally with retrograde filling from the right coronary artery was revealed. The left circumflex coronary artery also showed some insignificant internal luminal irregularities. The patient was subjected to coronary artery bypass graft ...

DISEASE CLASSIFICATION; THE SYPHILITIC STIGMA, CONTINUED. It has been said that the patient afflicted with the syphilitic taint suffers from structural changes; yet the emotional sphere in the purely syphilitic patient is not seriously affected. For this reason, in the syphilitic patient we find less subjective symptoms; there is little of the supersensitiveness, and less desires, cravings and longings than in the psoric patient. The syphilitic patient actually suffers much less than the psoric; the mental sphere has not been so much invaded, for the syphilitic stigma is not so thoroughly established through untold centuries of time as the psoric, and because it is not so thoroughly a part of the very essence of mans spirit we have a far better chance to eradicate the dyscrasia.. The very earmarks of the various stigmata show their respective characters. The psoric itches, and appears unclean, unwashed. The syphilitic ulcerates and the bony structure is changed. The sycotic infiltrates and is ...

The lesions of the aortic root, which are supravalvular aortic stenosis and coronary ostial stenosis, in familial hypercholesterolemia were studied using two-dimensional echocardiography. The subjects were 25 heterozygotes, six homozygotes and 30 control subjects. The internal diameters of the aortic ring, the sinus of Valsalva and the supravalvular aortic ring were measured. Measurement variation due to body size was avoided by normalizing the latter two values by the diameter of the aortic ring. Four heterozygotes and all homozygotes were judged to have stenosis of the supravalvular aortic ring; none of heterozygotes and four homozygotes had stenosis of the sinus of Valsalva. In three of the four patients with stenosis of both the supravalvular aortic ring and the sinus of Valsalva, a pressure gradient was demonstrated. The degree of supravalvular aortic stenosis correlated with the serum cholesterol level but not with patient age. All homozygotes, even very young ones, had a severe aortic ...
DISCUSSION. Since SVCS is a rare diagnosis and considering our relevant sample of 28 symptomatic patients managed with angioplasty and stenting over a period of 10 years, it is important to report our experience of the technical and clinical success of this management approach. To accomplish this, we reviewed the medical records of symptomatic patients with Standford type III SVCS only.. Fifty years ago, the main etiology of SVCS was attributed to infectious causes, particularly syphilitic aneurysm of the thoracic aorta or tuberculosis, but this has been replaced by malignant diseases, especially lung tumors.8 Currently, benign causes resulting from increasing use of intravascular catheters and pacemaker electrodes are responsible for at least 35% of cases, and this is an ascending curve.9 In fact, SVCS in 10 of the 28 patients (35.7%) in our sample was derived from benign causes, more frequently in more recent years.. SVCS is a clinical diagnosis confirmed by computed tomography (CT) with ...

This analysis is based on the study of fifty-six cases admitted to the University of Virginia Hospital between July, 1923 and July, 1927. All of the cases had heart failure and were diagnosed syphilis of the heart or aorta. Syphilis was considered the primary etiological factor; this was proved by autopsy in some of the cases, but in most of them the diagnosis was based on clinical and laboratory data. The cases of heart disease showing what was considered an incidental syphilitic infection and those in which it was thought to be of secondary importance were discarded. In addition to ...

Details: http://www.homoeopathy-course.com/index.php/homoeopathy-resources-media/homoeopathy-books/dr-banerjea-book-on-miasm By such a prescription, which covers the miasmatic dyscrasia of the person, the chances of recurrence are eradicated and the axiom of rapid, gentle and permanent recovery (Hahnemanns Organon §3) is encompassed. In cases of one-sided disease with a scarcity of symptoms, the action of the anti-miasmatic remedy is centrifugal, and by bringing the suppressed symptoms to the surface, allows a proper totality to be framed.. The miasmatic consideration is therefore of great importance as demonstrated in the following example:-. A person is suffering from features of gastric ulcer, which has been confirmed by radiography. As ulceration is syphilitic, the surface miasm is therefore syphilitic also. Let us say that the totality of symptoms (physical, emotional and essence) of the person reflects towards Kali Bichromicum, an anti-syphilitic remedy. The choice of remedy is ...
2015 Elsevier Inc. Inflammatory diseases of the aorta include routine atherosclerosis, aortitis, periaortitis, and atherosclerosis with excessive inflammatory responses, such as inflammatory atherosclerotic aneurysms. The nomenclature and histologic features of these disorders are reviewed and discussed. In addition, diagnostic criteria are provided to distinguish between these disorders in surgical pathology specimens. An initial classification scheme is provided for aortitis and periaortitis based on the pattern of the inflammatory infiltrate: granulomatous/giant cell pattern, lymphoplasmacytic pattern, mixed inflammatory pattern, and the suppurative pattern. These inflammatory patterns are discussed in relation to specific systemic diseases including giant cell arteritis, Takayasu arteritis, granulomatosis with polyangiitis (Wegeners), rheumatoid arthritis, sarcoidosis, ankylosing spondylitis, Cogan syndrome, Behçets disease, relapsing polychondritis, syphilitic aortitis, and bacterial and ...
Infectious thoracic aortitis is a rare disease, especially since the incidence of syphilis and tuberculosis has dropped in western countries. However, the risk to develop an infectious aortitis and subsequent mycotic aneurysm formation is still present, particularly in case of associated endocarditis, sepsis, and in immunosuppressive disorders. Moreover, the number of surgical and endovascular thoracic aortic repairs is continuously increasing, and infective graft complications are observed more frequently. Several etiopathogenetic factors may play a role in thoracic aortic and prosthetic infections, including hematogenous seeding, local bacterial translocation, and iatrogenous contamination. Also, fistulization of the esophagus or the bronchial tree is commonly associated with these diseases, and it represents a critical event requiring a multidisciplinary management. Knowledge on underlying micro-organisms, antibiotic efficacy, risk factors, and prevention strategies has a key role in the ...
Background: Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and Treponema pallidum coinfection is relatively common and accounts for about 25% of primary and secondary syphilis. Tertiary syphilis in HIV-uninfected and HIV-infected patients is vanishingly rare. This is most likely due to early treatment of cases of primary and secondary syphilis. There is rapid progression to tertiary syphilis in HIV-infected patients. Case Presentation: A 49-year-old woman diagnosed with HIV Type 1 infection and cluster of differentiation 4 (CD4) count of 482 presented with a four-week history of multiple crusted plaques, nodules, and ulcers on her face, arms, and abdomen ...
A new study by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) highlights an increased rate of congenital syphilis (CS) in the U.S. CS happens when an infected mother passes the infection on to a child during pregnancy. Approximately 40% of babies with CS will experience stillbirth, miscarriage, and birth defects like blindness or deafness.. The rate of CS within the U.S. is still relatively low-only 458 babies were born with CS during 2014. But it is a reversal of what was previously a shrinking trend; from 2008 to 2012, the rates had been on the decline and shrunk from 446 to 334 per year. In two years, the number of CS cases not only reversed this decline but grew slightly past where it had started.. Congenital syphilis is highly preventable. If a pregnant woman with syphilis is given penicillin, there is a 98% chance she will not pass the disease on to her child. Due to this, CS rates are considered a sentinel event by the CDC. The term refers to incidents that represent multiple missed ...
Consecutive serum samples were obtained from patients with syphilis before and on three occasions after treatment. The sera contained immunosuppresive factors associated with the immunoglobulin fraction, which could depress the natural killer cell activity of healthy controls. There was no evidence that allogeneic or lymphocytotoxic antibodies played a role in immuno-suppression, which could be reproduced with both soluble and insoluble antigen-IgG-antibody complexes.. ...

Syphilis is a multisystem bacterial infection caused by Treponema pallidum. The incidence of infection in the United States has risen by more than 75% since the year 2000, when it was at a low of 2.1 per 100,000 people. Ocular involvement may occur in any stage of infection and may present in a variety of ways, with posterior uveitis being the most common manifestation. We report a case of ocular syphilis infection with an unusual presentation of bilateral non-granulomatous panuveitis with papillitis and unilateral focal chorioretinitis. This is a retrospective case report with literature review. A 39-year-old Caucasian female presented with a 2-week history of bilateral ocular flashes and left eye pain. Dilated fundus examination revealed mild optic disc edema in both eyes, the right eye more than the left. In the left eye, there was an area of retinal elevation and whitening involving the peripheral retina. Fluorescein angiography, B-scan ultrasonography, and ocular coherence tomography were performed
Abstract. ABO and Rh blood groups among 54 syphilitics were determined. A significantly increased incidence of syphilis in persons blood groups B and AB was observed; significant decrease in those having groups A and 0. A significant decrease in, the incidence of syphilis was also observed in Rh negative subjects. These results suggest a possible relationship between the inheritance of blood groups and the natural defence mechanism against syphilis ...

Syphilis is a sexually transmitted infection caused by the spirochete bacteria Treponema pallidum. The disease is developed into your stages with no symptom in the first stage, rash in the palm, soles of the feet,, etc. in the second stage. In the latent (hidden) stage of syphilis, no symptoms, the disease is hidden but it can be transmitted through sexual activity. In the final stage, is also known as Tertiary Syphilis, the infectious person may experience symptoms of Heart, Eyes, Brain , Nervous system, etc. damages. According to the statistics, more than 6000 cases of syphilis are reported in the United States alone each year. It is a concern that you may transmit the disease to your baby during child birth ...
Venereal diseases were introduced here by the whites and have become widely diffused throughout the native population, owing to the unrestrained, promiscuous intercourse practiced everywhere. Syphilis pursues a very mild course in the natives. None of the terrible ravages of the tertiary form of this disease, with which we are so familiar, are seen here. I have no doubt that the iodin contained in their food furnishes a satisfactory explanation for this. A well-known Eskimo is known to have contracted the disease eight years ago. He has had no treatment of any kind and is now in perfect health and the father of several healthy, vigorous children. I examined a boy about 15 years of age who was then the subject of secondary lesions. I found mucus patches on the inner surface of the lower lip, general lymphatic hyperplasia but no cutaneous eruptions. The severest case of tertiary syphilis I have seen was in the case of a man about 50 years of age whose woman was infected by a member of an Arctic ...

Introdução. A aortite tuberculosa é uma entidade rara inicialmente descrita por Weigert em 1882.. Report. Um homem de 73 anos, sob controlo imagiológico regular por aneurisma da aorta abdominal de 4cm de diâmetro, foi referenciado ao Departamento por suspeita de ruptura contida. O doente estava assintomático e a Angio-TC evidenciava uma massa inflamatória envolvendo o aneurisma. Durante a cirurgia electiva convencional, infiltração da parede do aneurisma e adenopatias foram identificadas. A análise histológica era compatível com tuberculose. Oito meses após a cirurgia, o doente encontra-se estável e sob terapêutica tuberculostática.. Conclusão. A associação entre tratamento cirúrgico e terapêutica tuberculostática de longa duração é a melhor opção terapêutica para os casos de aortite tuberculosa.. ...
Thirteen amide-substituted phenyl arsenoxides (-RCONH2, -RSO2NH2) were, per unit arsenic, only 4.5 to 13.5 per cent as toxic as the parent phenyl arsenoxide. Since the treponemicidal activity in vitro was not reduced to the same degree, the ratio of treponemicidal activity: toxicity was 1.9 to 6.1 times more favorable than that of phenyl arsenoxide. The favorable effect of amide groups was confirmed for ten of these compounds by assays of toxicity and therapeutic activity in syphilitic rabbits.. When one or both of the amide hydrogens were substituted (e.g., -SO2N(CH3), -CONH-pyridine), the effect of the entire group shifted toward that of the terminal substituent. In most cases, substitution in the amide therefore caused an increased toxicity, and impaired the favorable effect of the amide group as such. Only in the case of the compounds with terminal hydroxyl acetamido or nitrile groups was the favorable effect of the amide altogether preserved, perhaps because these groups in themselves ...
