Two Dimensional Echocardiography

A 1-year-old domestic longhair cat presented to our hospital with a 4-month history of progressive exercise intolerance and coughing. Two-dimensional echocardiography confirmed the presence of an intrapericardial cyst and cardiac tamponade. Tamponade was relieved via percutaneous aspiration of the cyst. The cyst was surgically excised 4 days later, and histopathology was consistent with a biliary cyst. The cat's clinical signs completely resolved following surgery.

The natural history of the pulmonary arterial pressure in 23 children with isolated ventricular septal defects has been evaluated by serial night heart catheterization. In none of the 23 patients was there a significant increase in pulmonary arterial pressure. Eight patients showed a significant decrease. The direction of shunts did not change between procedures, and the clinical status was stable. Our experience correlated well with the majority of institutions. It would appear that the natural course of pulmonary arterial pressure in ventricular septal defect is not commonly one of progressive rise.
