Myasthenic Crisis

We report a previously asymptomatic 50-year-old lady who came with myasthenic crisis as initial presentation of myasthenia gravis. She developed pulmonary edema following intravenous immunoglobulin administration and had ischemic changes in ECG and left ventricular dysfunction on echocardiography. She improved with diuretics, dobutamine, and fluid restriction alone. This is the first report in English-language medical literature describing the association between myasthenic crisis and likely takotsubo cardiomyopathy-related pulmonary edema following intravenous immunoglobulin administration.

Neurogenic Pulmonary Edema

Introduction. Subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) can be followed by cardiac abnormalities. We describe a patient with Takotsubo cardiomyopathy and neurogenic pulmonary edema (NPE) after aneurysmal SAH. Case report. A previously healthy, postmenopausal woman, suffered from aneurysmal SAH with consequent hydrocephalus. After external ventricular drainage, craniotomy and clipping of the posterior inferior cerebellar artery aneurysm, the patient developed acute heart failure and NPE. Transthoracic echocardiogram showed the left ventricular apical ballooning and hypercontractile basal segments. On chest radiography, bilateral pulmonary infiltrates were seen. Seventeen days after the SAH attack, the patient was discharged from hospital. Postponed coronary angiography revealed no signs of coronary artery disease. Conclusion. This case and review of the relevant literature suggest that Takotsubo cardiomyopathy and neurogenic pulmonary edema are not uncommon after aneurysmal SAH.

<p>Immersion Pulmonary Edema (IPE) is a unique medical condition being increasingly described in the medical literature as sudden-onset pulmonary edema in the setting of scuba diving and/or swimming. We report on three patients with unique presentations of IPE with associated development of Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TTC). All three cases occurred in Oahu, Hawaii and were seen by the same cardiologist within a span of seven years. Each patient was scuba diving with sudden onset dyspnea with pulmonary edema on chest x-ray. Cardiac catheterization revealed no significant epicardial stenosis or thrombosis. EKGs showed typical evolution of symmetric T wave inversion. Wall motion abnormalities resolved.  IPE and TTC may occur together and may be more common than initially thought. Physical and emotional stressors are known to trigger TTC. TTC should be considered as a possible complication of IPE. Initial workup should include EKGs, cardiac enzymes, echocardiogram and, in the appropriate situation, cardiac catheterization. </p>
