Insights

Intravenous leiomyomatosis (IVL) is a rare tumor with high recurrence. A multidisciplinary team approach shows promise for treating intracardiac leiomyomatosis (ICL), a complex form of IVL.

Area of Science:

  • Cardiovascular Medicine
  • Oncology
  • Surgical Oncology

Background:

  • Intravenous leiomyomatosis (IVL) presents as rare, complex tumors.
  • IVL exhibits high recurrence rates post-surgical removal.
  • IVL can involve multiple organs, including pulmonary embolization.

Cardiomyopathy IV: Restrictive Cardiomyopathy

Restrictive cardiomyopathy (RCM) is a rare heart muscle disease characterized by impaired ventricular filling due to stiffened ventricular walls, leading to significant diastolic dysfunction.EtiologyRestrictive cardiomyopathy can arise from both inherited and acquired diseases, many of which are systemic. It is categorized into four main types: infiltrative, storage, non-infiltrative, and endomyocardial diseases.Infiltrative diseases, such as amyloidosis, lead to RCM by depositing amyloid...
