    Investigation of left ventricular systolic and diastolic functions before and after levosimendan administration in patients with heart failure
    (2021) Yurdam, Ferhat; Emren, Zeynep Yapan; Şenöz, Oktay
    Background: we aimed to investigate effect of levosimendan treatment on left ventricle systolic and diastolic parameters with transthoracic echocardiography in patients with heart failure Method: Patients over 18 years old with lower than %35 of ejection fraction and New York Heart Association (NYHA) class III-IV were included. Left ventricle systolic and diastolic parameters before and after levosimendan treatment were compared. Approval was obtained from the local ethics committee of Celal Bayar University Medical Faculty for our study. Results: With levosimendan treatment; E/A ratio(2,25±0,76 vs 1,67±0,75 , p:0,03 ) and E/E’ ratio (23,03±13,60 vs 15,96±8,43 , p:0,01) decreased significantly. Furthermore there was an increase in ejection fraction(20,60±5,65 vs 27,00±7,11 , p:0,01) and A velocity( 0,45±0,14 vs 0,61±0,30 , p:0,03). Conclusion: Levosimendan treatment has an acute favoruble effect in ejection fraction and diyastolic mitral inflow parameters that showed ventricle overload

    Mitral valve obstruction caused by heart-shaped large left atrial myxoma
    (2021) Şenöz, Oktay; Yurdam, Ferhat; Emren, Zeynep Yapan; Emren, Volkan; Tomakin, Fatma Nur
    Myxoma is one of the most common benign primary cardiac tumors, usually detected at ages between 30 and 60 years. It accounts for 50% of the primary cardiac tumors. The most common location of a myxoma is the left atrium. Myxomas are more prevalent in females. The clinical outcomes can differ depending on the tumor’s size, location, and architecture. The clinical picture can mimic mitral stenosis, which causes mitral valve obstruction. Syncope is a rare but life-threatening symptom and requires early surgical treatment. This paper describes a patient with a large left atrial myxoma, causing mitral valve obstruction
