Öğe Accessory mitral valve tissue: anatomical and clinical perspectives(Elsevier Science Inc, 2021) Yetkin, Ertan; Cuglan, Bilal; Turhan, Hasan; Yalta, KenanMitral valve is a complex cardiac structure composed of several components to work in synchrony to allow blood flow into left ventricle during diastole and not to allow blood flow into left atrium during systole. Accessory mitral valve tissue (AMVT) was defined as existence of any additional part and parcel of valvular structure which has an attachment to normal mitral valve apparatus in left-sided cardiac chambers. AMVT may present itself in different clinical circumstances ranging from a silent clinical course to thromboembolic events, heart failure, left ventricular outflow tract obstruction, and severe arrhythmia. This article reviews the clinical perspectives of AMVT in terms of symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment, providing a new anatomical classification regarding the location of AMVT. Briefly type I refers to AMVT having attachments on the supra leaflets level, type II refers to attachments on the mitral leaflets, and type III refers to attachment below the mitral leaflets. Increased awareness and widespread use of echocardiographic techniques would increase recognition of AMVT in patients with heart murmurs but otherwise healthy and in those with left ventricular outflow tract obstruction or tissue which causes subaortic stenosis and with unexplained cerebrovascular events.

Enhanced external counterpulsation, proven safe and effective in patients with coronary artery disease and chronic heart failure, is a technique that increases venous return and augments diastolic blood pressure. This study assessed the effects of enhanced external counterpulsation on symptoms of venous disease using the Venous Insufficiency Epidemiological and Economic Study-Quality of Life/Symptoms questionnaire. Methods: This study was designed prospectively for evaluating venous symptoms before and after enhanced external counterpulsation treatment. The study population consisted of 30 consecutive patients who were admitted to the cardiology clinic. The Venous Insufficiency Epidemiological and Economic Study-Quality of Life/Symptoms questionnaire was applied to assess venous symptoms one day before and after enhanced external counterpulsation treatment. Results: The mean age of the patients was 64.62 ± 9.67 years. After 35 hours of enhanced external counterpulsation, 28 patients (93%) had at least 1 New York Heart Association functional class reduction compared with baseline and 43% of patients had 2 New York Heart Association functional classes improvement. The New York Heart Association class significantly decreased after enhanced external counterpulsation treatment (P< .001). There was a significant improvement in their swelling and night cramps symptoms compared with baseline (P< .001 and P = .05, respectively). Also, The left ventricular ejection fraction significantly increased after the enhanced external counterpulsation treatment (P = .02). Conclusions: The findings obtained in the present study suggested that patients treated with enhanced external counterpulsation showed a significant reduction in swelling and night cramps symptoms. Although the total VEIN score did not change after the enhanced external counterpulsation procedure, improvement in swelling and night cramps underlines the beneficial effects of enhanced external counterpulsation through the venous vascular territory.Öğe Golden ratio in congestive heart failure: A promising proportion for prognosis and decompensation(Via Medica, 2020) Yetkin, Ertan; Ozturk, Selcuk; Cuglan, Bilal; Turhan, Hasan[Abstract Not Available]Öğe Symptoms in Dilating Venous Disease(Bentham Science Publ Ltd, 2020) Yetkin, Ertan; Ozturk, Selcuk; Cuglan, Bilal; Turhan, HasanLower extremity venous diseases or insufficiency include clinically deteriorating conditions with morphological and functional alterations of the venous system, including venous hypertension, vascular wall structural abnormality, and venous valvar incompetency in association with an inflammatory process. In fact, the same pathophysiological processes are the main underlying mechanisms of other venous insufficiencies in different vascular territories such as Peripheral Varicose Vein (PVV), varicocele, Pelvic Varicosities or Congestion Syndrome (PCS) and Hemorrhoidal Disease (HD). Regarding the anatomical continuity of lower extremity venous system, urogenital system (pampiniform plexus in male and broad ligament and ovarian veins in female) and anorectal venous system, it is reasonable to expect common symptoms such as pain, burning sensation, pruritis, swelling, which arise directly from the involved tissue itself. High coexistence rate of PVV, varicocele/PCS and HD between each other underlines not only the same vascular wall abnormality as an underlying etiology but also the existence of common symptoms originating from the involved tissue in dilating venous disease. Accordingly, it might be reasonable to query the common symptoms of venous dilating disease in other venous vascular regions in patients with complaints of any particular venous territory.Öğe Where cystatin C acts: inside or outside of the plaque(Springer-Verlag Italia Srl, 2020) Yetkin, Ertan; Cuglan, Bilal; Turhan, Hasan; Yalta, Kenan[Abstract Not Available]
